Critics Review
“Detailed and dutiful…Ms. Harris-as is her prerogative-omitted much detail from her own autobiography. Mr. Morain has filled in many of those blanks.” - The Wall Street Journal “An essential road map to understand the life and groundbreaking political journey of the former California prosecutor who next week will become the country’s first female vice president.” - Politico “A revealing portrait of the people and events surrounding Harris’s rise to political stardom.” - New York Times Book Review “The author… shares stories of the Harris that exists when the cameras are gone, and does it in a way that’s not sensational or tabloid-ish. Instead, it’s thorough, honest and a quick-to-read education about our new second in command, so if you think you don’t know enough about her, add it to your must-read pile, because Kamala’s Way is a great next step.” - Miami Times “Morain brings deep familiarity with California politics to an admiring, yet balanced, biography of Harris… A brisk, well-informed narrative of political ascendancy.” - Kirkus Reviews (starred review) “This is a brisk and evenhanded account of Harris’s trailblazing career.” - Publisher’s Weekly “Morain’s deep-rooted reporting experience covering California politics is evident on every page… This is a great read for anyone interested in a richly contextualized account of Harris’ political evolution.” - Booklist
