Michelle Obama's biography, Kenya's draft constitution etc

The Kenya Draft harmonised Constitution was released to the public on November 17th. It is an interesting document. Sample:

Chapter Four Clause 24 (1) (j) All citizens have the responsibility to develop their abilities through acquisition of knowledge, continuous learning and the development of skills.

I liked that bit...
I also got a copy of Liza Mundy's 'Michelle: A Biography.' So far a nice read though light years away from Nigel Hamilton's exhaustive, insightful and absorbing biographies. Maybe it's because there is pretty little to say about Michelle as compared with Bill Clinton, maybe.

Quick, I get over and done with Michelle and move on to Joseph Conrad's 'Heart of Darkness' and a number of travel books.

A reminder: Next bulk purchase will be Malcolm Gladwell's 'Blink' and 'Outliers.' I know there are 13 books awaiting purchase but, I will get to them.
Cheers.
