hmmm not entirely sure what to think of this. I would say I enjoyed it, and the genuine honesty that the author presented within her sessions with her psychiatrist. I found some of it to be relatable, but the writing did not really flow for me.

I really enjoyed this book. It resonated with me a lot and made me reflect about how I think and act similarly to the author. I think I definitely need to re-read it again. Kind of slow in some parts, but for the most part I really liked the dialogue between the author and therapist and enjoyed how much it made me reflect.

A raw, very real portrait of the therapy experience with the added factor of being through a Korean lens instead of the American one I'm more used to. It was an interesting read, and while I would've loved some more depth to the sessions I can understand why the author chose to keep some things private (as well as cut down on content for the sake of the book not being utterly massive). I really appreciated the way this book portrayed therapy (and the healing process) as nonlinear, with its own ups and downs, rather than the author ever reaching a final point where she was "cured".
i loved the title, but the book didn't do much for me. it was incomplete and redundant, and the therapist was giving useless insights imo, the kind of feel good crap we can read in any half-assed self-help book. also the author's musings/ self reflection after the therapy sessions were not well written/ well translated because they were so short and to the point that there was absolutely nothing concrete being discussed.
