Michelle Obama’s Memoir is the Fastest Selling Book of 2018 at Barnes & Noble

Posted on

The former first lady of the United States, Michelle Obama, should be mighty proud that her memoir is now the fastest selling book of 2018 at Barnes & Noble.

Her new memoir “Becoming” has even surpassed the Trump administration tell-all “Fear: Trump in the White House” written by Bob Woodward.

Barnes & Noble has said that “Becoming” had the best first-week sales of any adult book since 2015’s “Go Set a Watchman,” the second book from Harper Lee who wrote “To Kill a Mockingbird.”

According to publisher Penguin Random House, “Becoming” sold more than 725,000 copies on its first day of release.

Mrs. Obama’s memoir chronicles her lie from a child to being the first lady of the U.S. She also is critical of President Trump in the book and wrote she will “never forgive” Trump for spreading the baseless “birther” conspiracy theory where he alleged that Barack Obama was not born in the United States.

“What if someone with an unstable mind loaded a gun and drove to Washington? What if that person went looking for our girls? Donald Trump, with his loud and reckless innuendos, was putting my family’s safety at risk. And for this I’d never forgive him,” she wrote in the book.
