Its compelling, poignant, and gives great insight into some of the issues that defined his first term. This will go down as obe of the better presidential memoirs/autobiographies. I admit it can get deep in the weeds as it concerns the economy, but I liked it. A lot. Cant wait for the second volume.

Its easy to read and gives a look at what goes on behind the scenes in government.
When is Obamas next book going to be published?

What made it particularly enjoyable for me, was listening to it in audible, as it's narrated by PBO himself -- I recommend it highly.
