Michelle Obama has finally given the world some highly-anticipated details about her upcoming book and we could not be more ready.
The former FLOTUS announced Sunday on social media that the upcoming memoir, which we now know will be called Becoming, will share "deeply personal" stories from her life, including how she found her voice, and how she came to use it to empower so many others.

The tweet includes a link to the book's website, which displays the memoir's official summary.
"With unerring honesty and lively wit, she describes her triumphs and her disappointments, both public and private, telling her full story as she has lived it—in her own words and on her own terms," the description reads.
The book's "deep reflection and mesmerizing storytelling" will explore Obama's unseen journey from child to woman to wife, mother, and America's first black First Lady.
The book will cost $32.50 in the U.S. and $40.00 in Canada according to a press release. One million copies will also be donated in the Obama family’s name to First Book — a nonprofit working to ensure children in need have access to new books and learning materials in the U.S. and Canada.
Becoming, which will be released in 24 languages, along with an audio edition read by Obama herself, will release globally on Nov. 13, 2018 from Penguin Random House.
If you need us we'll be dreaming about this book tour and anxiously awaiting a pre-order. And don't forget, we still have Barack's book details to look forward to, too.
