Where the Light Enters

Building a Family, Discovering Myself

De: Jill Biden

Narrado por: Jill Biden

An intimate look at the love that built the Biden family and the delicate balancing act of the woman at its center

"How did you get this number?" Those were the first words Jill Biden spoke to US senator Joe Biden when he called her out of the blue to ask her on a date.

Growing up, Jill had wanted two things: a marriage like her parents' - strong, loving, and full of laughter - and a career. An early heartbreak had left her uncertain about love until she met Joe. But as they grew closer, Jill faced difficult questions: How would politics shape her family and professional life? And was she ready to become a mother to Joe's two young sons?

She soon found herself falling in love with her three "boys", learning to balance life as a mother, wife, educator, and political spouse. Through the challenges of public scrutiny, complicated family dynamics, and personal losses, she grew alongside her family, and she extended the family circle at every turn: with her students, military families, friends and staff at the White House, and more.

This is the story of how Jill built a family - and a life - of her own. From the pranks she played to keep everyone laughing to the traditions she formed that would carry them through tragedy, hers is the spirited journey of a woman embracing many roles.

Where the Light Enters is a candid, heartwarming glimpse into the creation of a beloved American family and the life of a woman at its center.

Strong woman and strong family

I was very impressed with the writing and her telling of this personal story of her life. Such amazing strong values were a big part of her childhood story and the story of the Bidens life together. A true example of love and commitment to all they touched in their life. I likedJoe Biden before and now I like him even more after learning about him through Jill's eyes. A better read than I expected. Would highly recommemd.

A touching account of a sweet family’s life experiences

Heartwarming and tender. It was surprising to learn that the Biden family has been through so much and are yet so loving and relatable.

Very good listen

Loved it, hard to turn off each time I arrived at my destination. Very good.

Loved this book

Jill Biden has written a very personal and heartfelt book. I’m inspired by her and am very grateful she took the time to write about impactful times in her life as well as what her guiding strength is. Her energy and deep compassion come through as she read the book. Highly recommend.

Amazing read!

Just wow! I feel so drawn to Dr. Biden after reading about her life. I found so many similarities to her including her desire to be a working mother and her independence❤️ She has had such an impressive life. I had no idea she was a teacher at a community college WHILE she was the second lady!! Did you know that?? Like how did she do that with only a few students knowing who she really was? She was always drawn to the classroom and making a difference in the community.

Jill also met Joe’s first wife (who passed away in a car accident with their baby daughter) before she met Joe. This book was a great insight into one amazing women’s life! Definitely worth the read even just being able to relate to another woman/wife/mom. She really has such great insight and understanding in her life and stories. Her faith shows.

Was a great read for Mother’s Day!

Devoted Wife, mother and grandmother
