“As I usually do during this time of year, I wanted to share my favorite books, movies, and music of 2023,” the former president wrote on social media, asking his followers to comment with their favorites, as well.

In his typical fashion, Obama shared separate posts for each medium, starting with listing his picks for the year’s best books, including The Heaven & Earth Grocery Store (James McBride), The Maniac (Benjamin Labatut), Poverty, by America (Matthew Desmond), How to Say Babylon (Safiya Sinclair), The Wager (David Grann), Chip War (Chris Miller) and The Vaster Wilds (Lauren Groff).

His other top picks were Humanly Possibly (Sarah Bakewell), King: A Life (Jonathan Eig), The Covenant of Water (Abraham Verghese), The Best Minds (Jonathan Rosen), All the Sinners Bleed (S.A. Cosby), The Kingdom, the Power, and the Glory (Tim Alberta), Some People Need Killing (Patricia Evangelista) and This Other Eden (Paul Harding).

Next up was his favorite movies of the year, which featured three flicks that were produced by his and Michelle Obama’s production company Higher Ground. He wrote in the post, “I’m biased since these movies were produced by Higher Ground, but these are in fact three of the best films I saw this year”: Rustin, Leave the World Behind and American Symphony.

The former president also acknowledged the historic Writers Guild of America and SAG-AFTRA strikes that took place earlier this year. He wrote in the caption, “Writers and actors went on strike to advocate for better working conditions and protections. It led to important changes that will transform the industry for the better. Here are some films that reflect their hard work over the last year.”

The other films in his list included The Holdovers, Blackberry, Oppenheimer, American Fiction, Anatomy of a Fall, Monster, Past Lives, Air, Polite Society and A Thousand and One.

Obama hasn’t revealed his top picks for music in 2023, but The Hollywood Reporter will continue to keep an eye out and will update this story at that time.
