I actually listened to this book on CD while commuting to work. It is read by President Obama so if you don't like his voice, you won't like listening to it.
Since I enjoy his voice, I found it to be enjoyable. The book seems to be Obama's views on anything from politics to family to faith to the economic market. He writes how he sees things, what is currently working and not, and what his vision is to change the status quo.
I like that he doesn't paint himself to be infallible or omniscience. He doesn't pretend that his ideas are the only fix or that they will fix everything that is currently wrong or broken.
I don't know if I would have enjoyed it as much as I did had I read it instead of listening. There was just something about hearing the man who wrote the words and who would just a couple of years later become the President of the United States that made it that much more enjoyable.
