Jill Biden is penning what’s being called a “deeply personal” memoir about her life and family.

“I am thrilled to tell a story that is such an enormous part of my heart — the story of how we built and rebuilt our family,” the 67-year-old former second lady said in a Tuesday statement to People magazine, which was first to report the book news.

{mosads}Biden’s memoir — which will be called “Where the Light Enters” — is poised to hit shelves in May.

The book, Biden says, will tell readers how she balanced motherhood and family life with her career as a community college professor. It will also detail how she and Joe Biden coped with the loss of the former vice president’s 46-year-old son, Beau, who died in 2015 of brain cancer.

Flatiron Books, the book’s publisher, said in a statement that Biden’s “perseverance in the face of tragedy, humility while living in the public eye, and unwavering love for her family above all else comes together beautifully” in her memoir

Biden previously released a children’s book, “Don’t Forget, God Bless Our Troops,” in 2012.
