This entire story is heartbreaking and is a necessary read. It took weeks to get through because things were so hard to stomach but I truly cannot express the appreciation I feel toward Yeonmi for being brave and willing to share her experiences.

aguattery's review against another edition
3.5
That being said, the writing style didn't sit well with me. It was VERY choppy and at times I didn't understand how we jumped from one topic to the next. Each chapter felt like reading an essay written by a middle schooler. And maybe that was purposeful to make the story accessible but it didn't work for me. It almost felt like I almost thought about dnf'ing it because of that but it's such an important story that I finished it anyway.

The books is heartbreaking. Knowing that she escaped is wonderful, but 1000’s don’t make it out. Many others make it out only to be sold into sex slavery or worse in China.
Thankful Yeonmi was brave enough to tell her story.
