"The Light We Carry" by Michelle Obama is a powerful and deeply personal memoir that recounts the author's life from childhood to the present day. The book is a candid reflection on Obama's experiences as a Black woman in America, and the challenges and opportunities she has faced along the way.


Obama's ability to weave together personal anecdotes and reflections with broader social and political insights. She shares her practical wisdom and powerful strategies for staying hopeful and balanced in today's highly uncertain world. She reflects on the issues of race, identity, and belonging, and Obama's experiences serve as a powerful lens through which to view these complex issues.


"The Light We Carry" is a reflections on her marriage, family life, career and time in the White House.


However, one potential weakness of the book is that it may not offer much in the way of new insights or revelations for readers who are already familiar with Obama's life and work. While the book offers a valuable perspective on the challenges and opportunities of being a Black woman in America, some readers may feel that it covers familiar ground.


Overall, "The Light We Carry" does not break new ground for readers who are already familiar with Obama's life and work but it is still an engaging read that will resonate with readers from all backgrounds.
