The book covers Malala's life story in great detail, from her childhood to the time when her family stayed in Birmingham. However, I did face some issues with the writing, particularly with the way the political and historical accounts were intertwined with its personal reflections. Nevertheless, it was still worth reading, and her story is truly enlightening and inspiring. I highly recommend this book to anyone looking for an eye-opening read.

I found the first part interesting but slow and sometimes boring. On the other hand, the last 30-40% of the book touched me deeply, and I read the last few chapters at a much faster pace.
Definitely a must-read book for the role model Malala is for lots of people all around the world.
