Reviews

We live in a highly anxious world and I can personally attest that this book has helped me in dealing with stress, social anxiety and existential dread – it is comforting, invigorating and liberating, all at the same time. -- Anton Hur, translator of I Decided to Live as Me This motivational book is a favourite of BTS's Jin ... [Its] messages align with BTS's consistent encouragement for fans to love themselves and pursue their unique journeys. -- Times Now The importance of being true to oneself has been emphasised by thinkers across cultures and time. . . So why are modern readers yearning to be reminded of this centuries-old lesson? . . . Unlike the words of ancient philosophers, [Kim Suhyun's] are rooted in everyday life, making them especially powerful to modern readers. . . . The insights the book conveys beneath its lighthearted surface seemingly resonate with people from different backgrounds. -- South China Morning Post I Decided to Live as Me really tries to help – and succeeds. . . . The author's honesty holds your attention. Kim's charming and simple illustrations have a way of sticking with you. . . . I feel I learned something, and it encouraged me to learn more and live better. -- Arlo Matisz, The Korea Times
