Favorite Quote: Being different conditions you toward cautiousness, even as it demands that you be bold.

Synopsis: In Michelle Obama’s second book, she encourages you to embrace whatever reality you face knowing there are no checklists or inspirational quotes to make things any different. Sometimes, when faced with uncertainty and vulnerability, the only around is through.

Thoughts & Feelings: I thoroughly enjoyed The Light We Carry. It’s a fresh way of summarizing Ryan Holiday’s Stoic Trilogy and Brene Brown’s Dare to Lead, but with a unique FLOTUS viewpoint. The book clocks in at 300 pages, so it’s easy to read, enjoy, and learn from Michelle’s stories.

Rating: 5/5
