In Order to Live: A North Korean Girl's Journey to Freedom
by Yeonmi Park, Maryanne Vollers
This was an incredibly powerful book. I think what made it so impactful to me was her honesty when talking about her past and how her younger self viewed the world. I feel like she shared her emotional and personal growth well, explaining why she made the decisions she did and how those difficult choices are haunting her now.
She also has a very interesting perspective in that her family was once very privileged (by North Korean standards) and lost their Songbun, causing them to live in extreme poverty.
