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

reflective medium-paced

2.5

I am not in the habit of 'diagnosing' others, however, all throughout this book I couldn't get out of my mind that she may have been misdiagnosed; which seems to be a common thread in other reviews too. I am diagnosed autistic, and if you'd have removed references to the name of her condition, I would have sworn this was a book about Autism. I hope this can be considered for her. 

Some favourite lines: "I want to march and hold hands with those who feel similarly to me", "I have trouble both accepting my own darkness and throwing myself into the light"
