Everybody needs to read this— regardless of your political or religious beliefs. If you are are human being, read this book. Her story is more gut-wrenching than imaginable with a strong message of hope.

sabrinz's review against another edition

dark hopeful reflective sad medium-paced

3.0

This book was given to my by a friend as a present with the words "a friend recommended it to me and said it would make my cry!"

Needless to say, this book and the real story it conveys did make me cry. But not for the brutal honesty with which Yeonmi Park describes her journey to freedom (I was mainly too shocked and heartbroken), but the positive outlook on her future and what she is trying to do with her voice and her story.

Simpyl because of the nature of this joruney, it is not a light read, but very much worth it.
