This book took me a few months to finish just because it was so sad and therefore hard for me to read. It’s obviously nonfiction so everything in this book was the truth. It was also very slow paced. But the story was very inspiring, and it was so interesting to see how different the culture is in Pakistan to the culture where I have grown up. So in summary, story was enlightening, writing was good.

She’s an amazing brave young woman not just because she survived , and kept going but continues the fight for girls education and the fight against terrorism with not war but with education . Her name as the story of her namesake went suits her very well. I hope to accomplish half of what she has.

I’m ashamed to say that I really had no clue about Malala or what happened to her. I’ve obviously heard of her because she spoke at the US COVID graduation thing they did, but I didn’t know her story. She is so brave and smart. This was very interesting and inspiring. I learned so much. I highly recommend this!
