5.0

I liked this memoir. It opened my eyes to the Psychology of making choices; that how we see ourselves is reflected in how self-esteem we have. Confidence is a choice and having a middle ground is okay to not be tied to the extremes of black and white. Life is complicated and having just two choices didn’t make sense. Sehee, Unnie, thank you for sharing your life and experiences with us, it’s not easy, but you did it. This book opened my eyes to a lot of possibilities and realizing that I need to focus more on the positive side because negativity can ruin a person. Overall, I was enlightened by this book.
