Impressions of a First Lady

The book contains quotes of our first lady. I expected something different but after getting over my surprise it was ok. The author just collected quotes on different topics. And this is how the book is organized: Headline and then quotes on a topic, next headline and so on.. Some of the quotes are funny, some are touching, some are smart, and some are plain boring like nothing else could be found to be printed. It is ok to get an impression but don't expect a biogaphy!

Motivational and Inspiring

Readers are able to understand Michelle's views on a variety of topics: balancing career and family; her childhood; fashion sense; Barack's safety; the `elitist' tag; role of the 1st lady and her critics.
