By: Barack ObamaMan, wouldn't it be awesome to have a president who is insightful, reflective, and intelligent - yeah, that's pretty much what I was thinking while reading this book. The book is a very personal reflection on growing up with mixed messages and ideas about race, culture, and identity- how the absence of his father left a big hole in his life and how he tried to fill it.
Recommendation: An important book to understanding the history and character of the 44th president. Will be considered a 'must read' for history students someday. Or maybe just history students studying the Obama administration.
Grade: A

Glad you read this. I've been meaning to pick it up but wasn't sure if it would be worth it. I certainly will now.
