challenging dark emotional informative inspiring sad tense medium-paced

5.0

The book is a hard look at one woman's life experiences because of the role Yakuza played in her life. It is an amazing example of perseverance. 
Highly recommend reading this. The writing is very simple and reads like someone is just recounting their life, which is exactly what she did.
