dapperreads 's review for:
I Want to Die but I Want to Eat Tteokbokki
by Baek Se-hee
reflective
slow-paced
As usual, no rating for the memoir, but I do have a few comments.
This was mostly a back and forth between the author and a psychiatrist. Which is fine, but it wasn’t quite what I was expecting. I did enjoy the notes from the translator explaining some of the ways it was translated. I listened to the audio and it was very slow - it felt much longer than the 4hrs it was, and since I speed it up that’s saying something about the pacing. I don’t care for slow paced books, but I do understand why this one was a slow as it was.
