#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

Included in "The Nonfiction Books Everyone Will Be Reading This Summer" by The New York Times

A novelist once wrote, “There are stories one must tell, and years when one must tell them.” Jill Biden’s time to discuss her four years in the White House is now.

Jill Biden became First Lady at a complicated moment in US history, at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic and in the shadow of the January 6 insurrection. These were the circumstances under which she set up office in the East Wing, where she hit the ground running. Throughout her husband’s presidency, Jill remained a tireless advocate for her causes, including women’s health, military families, vaccine awareness, cancer initiatives, and education. She made history as the first-ever First Lady to hold an outside job while her husband was in office, continuing to work as a professor at a nearby community college. Yet all the while, she saw herself as an ordinary woman living an extraordinary life.

In View from the East Wing, Jill shares her White House experiences for the first time, in her own words. She reflects on the Biden presidency and its impact on her family. She brings you behind the scenes, from Camp David to Air Force One, from grading papers in the Rose Garden to witnessing the abrupt end of her husband’s bid for reelection. This is the story of a woman dedicated to her roles as a wife, mother, grandmother, teacher—and First Lady of the United States.

This is a fascinating look behind the scenes of Joe Biden’s term as President. It also gives a greater understanding of all that first ladies do. It’s honest, personal, and a joy to listen to.

Reading her memoir in her own voice, Jill’s emotions give a richer understanding to the text.

I was surprised by how much Jill Biden reveals about her life in this memoir. Despite her public role, she comes across as remarkably relatable. At its heart, this is the story of a mother and wife who has endured significant loss while navigating extraordinary circumstances. The memoir is candid, reflective, and deeply personal. I thoroughly enjoyed it and highly recommend it.

I really enjoyed Jill’s honesty and sincerity as she experienced her journey navigating the political landscape of being the First Lady, a wife and a mother. She is in my opinion one of the best. The good ,bad and the ugly of being in her position and the constant scrutiny. Hopefully her future years will be filled with peace and love!

So sincere and honest
