Speed Reading — Michelle Obama - Level 5 — 400 wpm 

This is the text (if you need help).

Michelle Obama's autobiography has shot to the top of Amazon's bestseller lists. The in-depth memoir of her life and time at the White House is the fastest-selling book of 2018. The 448-page book is called 'Becoming'. Amazon calls it: "An intimate, powerful, and inspiring memoir by the former First Lady of the United States." The book's publisher said: "We are thrilled by the extraordinary response to Ms Obama's beautifully rendered and deeply personal memoir, and we are confident that 'Becoming' will inspire millions of readers."

Ms Obama said: "Becoming is never giving up on the idea that there's more growing to be done." A reviewer wrote: "Michelle Obama invites readers into her world, chronicling the experiences that have shaped her - from her childhood [in] Chicago to her years as an executive balancing the demands of motherhood and work, to her time spent at the world's most famous address." The autobiography and nationwide book tour have started talk of her running for President in 2020. One of her aides said: "Let me be very clear, it will never happen."
