I Want to Die but I Want to Eat Tteokbokki by Baek Se-hee

3.5

“The important thing here isn’t whether you are being loved, it’s how you will accept the love that comes your way.”

This is such an easy read that I definitely did enjoy but lowkey question the main character too. I mean, it was definitely explained by the psychiatrist why she's acting and feeling that way but it was too much. Although who am I to judge when I don't know what's happening inside those four walls in therapy. I did enjoy the realizations because it does answer some of the questions I have for myself or for others. What let me down is the "after therapy" part of the book. So around 40 pages of the book? It was just random stuff she's thought of that maybe had affected how she came to be. I would definitely recommend this to people who are in therapy or simply just feeling down. Just so they know that it's normal.
