i think this novel was phenomenal! it informs you on this very important issue of girls education, terrorism, and the taliban, while also being very intriguing and fast paced. if informational novels usually bore you, this one definitely wont!
one of my favorite parts about this book is how it tells you all about malalas life during the talibans terrorist attacks, but while it talks about that devastating topic, it cast a light on the good parts of her life during these struggles, like playing games with her friends after school, or watching ugly betty. another example is when malala reflects on her thoughts about her brush with death; while it is a terrible thing to happen, she writes that shes grateful to be alive and that the situation put so many eyes on her to advocate for the rights of women!
i would highly recommend this to anyone!! the topics malala discuss are very salient and i think everyone should give this book a chance.

This would be a 5-star book but I just had a hard time at some points to get through the more information packed chapters. I understand of course that the history and politics matter but it was sometimes hard to assimilate all the information.
