Every Falling Star: The True Story of How I Survived and Escaped North Korea by Sungju Lee, Susan Elizabeth McClelland

emotional informative sad medium-paced

4.25

An extremely important and heart breaking read. The writing is simplistic but does not sugarcoat the realities of what happened. I am so happy that the author has found passion in helping his community and advocating for other North Korean refugees.
