The book gives a lot of insight into the history and background of her land and family. It feels like Malala herself is a background figure for the first bit of the book but when she becomes the focus it's fascinating and a great read (listen).

I want to clarify that my rating is solely for the book and not for Malala as a person.
The book covers Malala's life story in great detail, from her childhood to the time when her family stayed in Birmingham. However, I did face some issues with the writing, particularly with the way the political and historical accounts were intertwined with its personal reflections. Nevertheless, it was still worth reading, and her story is truly enlightening and inspiring. I highly recommend this book to anyone looking for an eye-opening read.
