I Want To Die But I Want To Eat Tteokbokki by Baek Sehee

BATB score: 7/10 🫠

Greatest book title ever!

Best to: from aimlessly wandering in search of those others who were similarly depressed, she decided to be the person other depressed people may be looking for - hoping that someone would see her waving, recognizing themselves in her and approach her, so we all can find comfort in each other’s existence

Best for: those who aren’t deadly depressed but aren’t happy either

Best as: if you have never been to a psychiatrist and wants to know how the conversations are being conducted - this is legit accurate verbatim transcription

BATB lingering thought: psychiatrist’s questions can be quite annoying so “why do you say that” , “why do you think so” and “how so?”

Best quote: “I wonder about others like me, who seem totally fine on the outside but are rotting on the inside, where the rot is this vague state of being not-fine and not-devastated at the same time.”
