HA! Not so late this month…okay maybe just a little, but still, I tried man. I read two more books last month. So 4 of 20 done and dusted. Here they are: 3. BecomingBy Michelle Obama This book is very dear to me. It woke me up to the power of my own life story, and for that alone it will forever live within me. I share my thoughts in the video below.
