Malala’s autobiography consisted of what had happened during the day that she was shot, as well as the death threats she received earlier. Malala also wrote about her fight towards women’s education and why it had meant so much to her.

It turns out that Malala is fond of the book series, Twilight, and loves to gossip with her
