I Want to Die but I Want to Eat Tteokbokki by Baek Se-hee

Did not finish book. Stopped at 19%.
I really enjoyed it in the beginning but at some point it stopped being interesting. I guess I am at a point in my life that I’ve already gone through this myself and some of the advice the psych gives feels useless to me. Also I cannot seem to relate with what the writer was going through so it is very hard to connect with her. I’ve been avoiding picking it up so I am not going to put myself through that anymore.

I got really interested in the story but I feel the way it is written is so hard to understand that it makes me lose interest…
