I saw Obama speak last week and felt heartened by his inspiring words, humor, and wit. This book gave me the same feels. ❤️ #thanksobama #yeswecan

Just picked up 2 library holds (3 week loans thankfully) and just checked and have four more all in transit. #ThanksObama! (Literally; 3 of these are from his list, and one of the ones I picked up today was too). 🤣🤣

Clare-Dragonfly Best use of “thanks, Obama” ever 😂 5y

The joy I feel when my library holds come in is something akin to going trick-or-treating in a world where they handed out books instead of candy... It‘s even more satisfying when you started at # 166 in the queue. #thanksobama

britt_brooke The perfect description! Enjoy. I just listened to this and it‘s so good. 6y
BookNerd9906 @britt_brooke Awesome! Can‘t wait. ❤️❤️❤️ 6y
BookNerd9906 There have also been a few podcasts about this book/with Michelle Obama bonus if this counts for #booked2019 @Cinfhen @4thhouseontheleft @BarbaraTheBibliophage 6y

This is stupid good so far (30 percent in.) Makes me want to see what else I missed from Obama's 2017 recommended reads: https://www.facebook.com/barackobama/posts/10155532677446749

BridgetteM This book is so, so good! I read it earlier this year and quickly added it to my list of all-time favorites. 7y
Kaye Couldn‘t help but wonder what the Current Behind Holding Down the Oval Office Chair‘s Reading list looked like. : Hand, Hand, Fingers, Thumb, Dum Ditty , Dum Ditty, Dum Dum Dum. 😁 (edited) 7y
RaimeyGallant @Kaye I jumped a little when I read your comment. 7y

rmaclean4 One of the best books I havevread this year! 7y
BookNerd9906 Right?!?! A Gentleman in Moscow and Exit West are now at the top of my #tbr list. #thanksobama 7y
Kaye Sorry, Raimey , if you‘re a T fan. No offense meant. It‘s a kid‘s book. The one with the monkeys ? 7y
RaimeyGallant @Kaye Now I'm laughing. This socialist has never been mistaken for a T fan before. :) No, it was the thought of what his reading list might include that made me uneasy. 7y
RaimeyGallant @BookNerd9906 Good to know! 7y
Kaye He may have graduated to Archie and Jughead. 7y
BookNerd9906 @Kaye you‘re killing it tonight. All your comments are cracking me up. 🤣🤣 7y
RaimeyGallant @BookNerd9906 Let's get her on the circuit! I don't know what that means. Something stand-ups do? @Kaye 7y
Kaye Sorry guys. I should keep it more serious and book related. I think T is impressed with Archie and Jughead. 👈🏼. ONE of them reminds him of himself. Wanna guess which one ? 😁 7y
Adriene.Fontenot I was able to attend a reading and meet her a few months ago. She was amazing. I love her. 7y
Deblovestoread Thanks for the laugh @Kaye. I needed it. 7y
Kaye @Kdgordon88 You are most welcome. I needed one myself tonight. When I get really ticked, I can either cuss a blue streak or lip off for hours. Gotta get it OUT somehow. 7y
staci.reads I read Salvage the Bones earlier this year and was impressed with Ward's writing style. Then, I read this one and loved it even more. 7y
RaimeyGallant @staci.reads Good to know! 7y

I like to get lost in the bookstore before getting lost in the book @Powells #today #happyplace #portland #books #independentbookstore #friyay #thanksobama 📚☕️

SilversReviews So you live near Powell‘s. I owuld love to explore in that store. Have fun. 7y
rachelk @SilversReviews Thank you! It‘s not as close as I‘d like, but then that would be dangerous - time has a way of disappearing here. ;) 7y
SilversReviews @rachelk Oh yes on being dangerous. 7y

ElleSkel I used to live one quick bus ride from Powell's, but now I am on the opposite coast! 😭😭😢😢😢😢😭😭 7y
rachelk @Elle_Skeldon I lived in Portland for years but I‘m a little further out now. I hope you have a good bookstore where you are now! 7y
ElleSkel There is nothing like Powell's but we have some amazing mom and pop shops! 7y
rachelk @Elle_Skeldon I love mom & pop shops! I try to seek them out in my travels. 7y
Maria514626 I‘ve only been once. When I entered I felt like I should hand over my credit card and tell the clerk, “No matter what I tell you, I‘m allowed three books max. NO exceptions.” 7y
rachelk @Maria514626 My brother gave me a gift card there for Christmas, so I *had* to go shopping! 🙂 7y
Maria514626 I‘m sorry for your uncomfortable errand. 😂😂 7y
rachelk @Maria514626 Oh yes, it was terrible 😆 7y

I have had this pic on my phone for two years for no reason other than it makes me laugh every time I see it. I'm really gonna miss having a POTUS with a sense of humor. It's gonna be a sad week.
