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

reflective medium-paced
Since this is mostly exact transcripts of therapy sessions I don't feel comfortable doing a rating for this one. It was interesting, but it didn't resonate with me much. If anything it felt a bit like being back in grad school doing psych assessments. Which is fine, but honestly when I read the title of this book I thought it was fiction, so it's another one that's different from what I thought I was signing up for. 

There are no major breakthroughs or working towards amazing mental health, but if you're interested in what makes a person seek out mental health care when things are just not right enough, and what beginning to identify thought and behavior patterns looks like in order to change them, this could be a good one to check out.
