In Order to Live: A North Korean Girl's Journey to Freedom
by Yeonmi Park
dark
reflective
sad
medium-paced
I always have a hard time rating memoirs. How to rate someone's life.
This is a story of overcoming the cruellest conditions.
A story of survival and loss. Incredible pain and suffering, but also resilience and strength. I already knew a lot about North Korea, but this book still shocked me. Very hard to read and comprehend even.
After finishing, I was left amazed by the human capacity to overcome anything and everything.4
