Huge Book Deal for Barack and Michelle Obama. Get Your Advance Copy ASAP.!

One hopes he will write about the shame he feels for the thousands of women and children who died because of him. He could ask for forgiveness and try and find a way to live with himself for the rest of his own miserable life.

No doubt. Buying "the first black presidents" book... in their minds it will be the most ultra super mega virtue signalling prop ever devised by mankind.

My wife and I buy books all the time. I will be adding these to the shelf but I will be getting them at goodwill for a dollar like all my other political books. Goodwill is always lousy with them. For a buck I'll take it. Just picked up a Jacki o book last week and the week before that Sarah Palin and condi rice

They have to put something on the shelf of the billion dollar library being planned for his legacy.

Well, I heard on the radio that bookstores are making a comeback. At least here in the Chicago area. People like touching paper and turning a page, they say.

Good. I worry that if the market shrinks too much, real books will become difficult, expensive, or impossible to obtain. I don't want my library to be an EMP away from being erased from existence. I still have books from my great-grandparents. They just wouldn't be the same if they were pixels on a screen!

i'll wait for the reviews by persons like here on ATS...

I just will not Buy any books in which Any of their collective family benefit in any way,,,, money or fame included

I buy a lot of books. Barack I know to be an excellent writer, I will buy that.

I wonder how much will be fiction?

These book deals are in the way of bribes--payment for services rendered. They just use the publishing companies as fronts to move the cash. Of course the books will never make even close to the costs, and the company will write off the loss. And of course they will be ghost-written. And a week after publication, look for them in the bargain bin or the dumpster behind the bookstore.

Other '"legal" ways to bribe are lucrative speaking tours, ghost 'consultancy' jobs, inside investment opportunities, etc.

I predict 99.2% will be fiction.
And he will refer to himself 3,495,211 times in the books 23 total pages.

i would trust the reviews on goodreads before i trust the people here
you will never get an honest review from the members here.

Oddly Bush Jr. also has a book out recently.

This whole cashing out of Presidents with books has gotten out of hand, not to mention it "used to be" Presidents had the class to remain silent on things for a good twenty years or so out of respect for their colleagues and the difficulty of the job.

Guess "class" has gone out of style?
It's all about the $$$$ now.

March is coming in like a LION for some and a LAMB for others. For Barack and Michelle Obama, the luck of the Irish is smiling on them, due to a new Book Deal...actually two books... a HIS and a HERS. A deal worth in the neighborhood of $60 million dollars.

""The expectations for the books Michelle and Barack Obama have just signed a deal to write are stratospherically high — considering the often dull literary tradition of books written by former White House occupants.

Typically, such memoirs sell well despite being terribly polite and discreet. They’re intended as an attempt at cementing one’s legacy, not dishing dirt. But both Obamas, who have quietly returned to their life as private citizens, have devoted followings and a way with words.

“There will not be a more eagerly awaited presidential autobiography than the one that he’ll write, because of who he is and because of the fact that people have high expectations for him as a writer,” David Axelrod, who was chief strategist for Obama’s presidential campaigns, said recently on his podcast.

Penguin Random House announced late Tuesday that it had signed the former first couple to a joint book deal — and reportedly it’s a huge one that has set off a whirlwind of gossip in the publishing industry. The Financial Times reported that the deal topped out at $65 million, though other sources have cited amounts simply in the tens of millions of dollars.""

I wonder whose book will sell the most copies? Barack's or Michelle's? Do people really BUY books these days?

-CareWeMust

LOL...book deals for former POTUS's must be like album sales for musicians. It will be released and in digital format, some massive Obama donor (Bezos) will either buy millions of copies or inflate the sales of it to make people think it's off the charts.

Now let's think with some logic....dems are notorious for asking the most populated slums to vote for them...it will be like the vote...they have an agenda...

When this thing fails to sell, can I buy copies in bulk?

Idaho winters totally suck. I can heat this place for MONTHS!!

I thought " The Jungle Book" had already been written
