The Diary of a Young Girl by Mirjam Pressler, Anne Frank, Otto H. Frank
5.0
An amazing story of a teenager, trying to be a teenager in the most horrible of circumstances.
On the Road by Jack Kerouac
2.0
It gives you an insight on the time and how young people thought, specially because when it was released, people loved it. But it is essentially the story of a guy manipulated by his best friend and gaining nothing in return, not even a life lesson, just heartbreak, a criminal record and disappointment. I believe if told in a different way, it could have been an interesting book, but it is monotonous and it repeats itself chapter by chapter.
Korea: Tradition and Transformation: A History of the Korean People by Andrew C. Nahm
5.0
A great history book, to understand the life of the Korean people from the beginning of Korea to the now divided one. A definite must read!
Viet Nam: A Long History by Nguyễn Khắc Viện
4.0
It is a great history book, it explains so much, for some people it might be biased, but after being in Vietnam and seeing what was explained in the book with my own eyes, it is clear that the book is very objective, especially the writer tries to be to the best of his abilities.
An Illustrated History of Thailand by John Hoskin
4.0
It is a beautifully illustrated book, very easy to understand and follow. Although I would have liked more details between the time periods it is well written and very interesting.
