I'm reading this atm and it's both utterly compelling and incredibly sad. NK is such an awful place to live that it doesn't sound real, It's like something you'd find in Game of Thrones.

I struggle with reading these types of books when I know it actually happened. Although that one sounds pretty interesting

It's a pretty good read albeit hard at times.

I watched her Ted Talk, just shocking what these people have to go through. :(
