So, what makes this book’s words so special? Well, it’s because of So Yun’s ability to illustrate how we may feel through analogies, such as love being compared to diving into deep waters, that they are able to connect with readers, especially those who struggle in verbalizing these ideas by themselves. Overall, this makes the book more appealing and relatable to the audience!

Soo-hyun Kim’s I Decided to Live as Me is surely a must-read for anyone who struggles with the “adulting process” or those who are looking to start their journey toward self-acceptance and happiness. This book has something to offer to anyone, regardless of age, race, or gender. Through having an open mind and giving the effort needed to change, only then can we finally be ourselves.
