The article had a interesting explanation for as to why memoirs are the better form of literature, but I feel as though they could have gone deeper into how personal or intimate a memoir might be, given the fact that they are giving an exact account of what they see from their eyes.

My immediate reaction to the article is that the idea of writing a memoir is good, but the only part that I didn't like, is when it didn't talk about Malala's memoir that much, it threw me off towards the end, but I still like the story.

My immediate reaction was appreciative for Malala's choice of sharing her story, and that how she chose a memoir to be able to share her part. i do not like how complex the text was, it made it quite confusing and difficult to comprehend.

My immediate reaction was that although Malala Yousafzais best option was to write a memoir, memoirs don't always tell us the complete truth. Memoirs are very one sided and they only give you insight to whats happening with that person and when its happening. Although i think Malalas best option was to go with a memoir.

While reading this article I discovered a new way of looking at memoirs. Before I thought of them as plain fact, structured in a way that an audience of people like me will find boring. However, this article has enlightened me in the beauty that can be found in this type of literature. It is true that only fact will be found, but it is open to each reader to interpret the emotional side to the story. It truly puts the audience in the author's shoes.
