The moment that many people have been waiting for is almost here. Our Forever President Barack Obama announced on Thursday that his highly anticipated memoir will be dropping this November.
According to ABC News, Barack Obama’s memoir “A Promised Land” is just the first volume of two presidential memoirs, and in the book, he’ll talk about his time in the White House, and also ways he feels we can heal as a country.
Obama took to social media to announce the book and its November 17th release date and said, “There’s no feeling like finishing a book, and I’m proud of this one. I’ve spent the last few years reflecting on my presidency, and in A Promised Land I’ve tried to provide an honest accounting of my presidential campaign and my time in office.”
