I Am Malala: The Girl Who Stood Up for Education and Was Shot by the Taliban by Malala Yousafzai

5.0

Reading this book in 2024 after knowing her story and following news about her occasionally, I had no idea this would be a 5 star read. I was engulfed in learning about daily life in a violent society controlled by more than one terrorizing leader. It was especially interesting from a young girls' perspective, yet her thoughts were very mature due to her good education at the school her father founded as well as the direction and perspective of both her parents. This book is a relevant today, as it was when written due to all the conflicts around the world and within my own country.
