A review by hannahmcd94
I Am Malala by Malala Yousafzai

emotional hopeful informative slow-paced

2.5

A very interesting story but I would have loved to have heard from Malala’s point of view. It contained a lot of her fathers history and then the history and politics of Pakistan and there were a lot of bits you could tell have been forced in by the co-author so it didn’t feel like an authentic read. I think this book would have worked better had it been written a number of years after the attack rather than quite quickly when Malala could have rounded it off better and spoken solely to her own experiences and understanding.
