How hard it is to be a woman? You'll stay in home playing with the kids and enjoy the hard-earned money from your husband. Well if you ever wonder like that, read this book and you'll find the answers.

This book really made my blood boil. Kim Jiyoung endured a lot. She have many things to talk back yet she hold it on the tip of her tongue. I'm glad she has her mother and her husband. 

I actually love this book, but it was too short. I want to read moreee of Jiyoung's stories. I tried to watch the movie after I finished this book, and it was so good too!

Amazing.  Must be read for everyone. Amazing story that shows the truth that our sociality is still more favorable to men than to women. That the world is bild generally more for men than women. And how hard is being a girl. Even when we made so much progress in the past 100 years, its still a long way to go for us. Definitely shelf must-have.
