My Beloved World by Sonia Sotomayor 302 pages
From Goodreads:
The first Latinx (Puerto Rican) and third woman appointed to the US Supreme Court, Sonia Sotomayor has become an instant American icon. Now, with a candor and intimacy never undertaken by a sitting Justice, she recounts her life from a Bronx housing project to the federal bench, a journey that offers an inspiring testament to her own extraordinary determination and the power of believing in oneself.
My Review:
I absolutely love Sonia Sotomayor and this autobiography is so well written. Her life, the work she has done and continues to do, and her spirit are so inspirational. I loved getting to know her and her life better and her account of the struggles she endured to get to where she is blew me away. I highly recommend this book to anyone looking for a book about a strong, female role-model because she is it!
