review 1: Forget the rhetoric and listen to this first hand account of life in Pakistan. It's an honest first hand account of what it's like for a girl growing up in Pakistan. Malala recounts what life for her, her family, her village and her country is like before the Taliban, living under the Taliban rule and after the military "officially" pushed them out. I like to think of myself of well informed but this explains many questions. How terrorist organizations are able to use propaganda and start off with compassionate gesture like providing funding to win the heart and minds of locals. Why the country citizens don't trust the United States, the extent of government corruption and political maneuvering.The second take away we see through Malala, a girl who strongly believes in her... more rights to an education, and her father how one person can make a difference. It's an inspiring tale of how standing up for what you believe and against what is wrong can affect people and change.The book does a good job of not getting tied down in the high level politics but covers them just enough to understand what is going on. Anyone with a remote interest or curiosity of the middle east should read this book.
review 2: Walaupun tampilannya cukup tebal, buku ini ditulis dengan pembawaan ringan. Khas seperti anak perempuan ABG yang sedang menulis diarynya, kadang-kadang mengenai anak cowok pindahin yang menyatakan suka, tentang merias diri bersama sekelompok teman-teman perempuan lainnya tapi diari anak perempuan yang satu ini menceritakan sepak terjangnya berjuang dalam dunia pendidikan di carut-marut negara yang bernama Pakistan. Menurut saya buku ini lumayan rame, buku ini banyak menceritakan tentang latar belakang budaya dan tradisi orang-orang yang ada di Pakistan juga bisa secara sederhana bikin saya paham secara kasar gimana sih keadaan pendidikan khususnya buat anak perempuan di Pakistan sana. Dan tambahan, ayah Malala itu inspiratif banget! Bisa dibilang Malala ga bakalan ada tanpa Ayah yang tak mau menyerah sepertinya :) less
