Finding My Way

A Memoir

Narrado por: Malala Yousafzai

A USA TODAY MOST ANTICIPATED BOOK
“A remarkably intimate and insistently human chronicle of a moral authority’s coming of age.” —The New York Times

This is not the story you think you know. It’s the one I’ve been waiting to tell.

Thrust onto the public stage at fifteen years old after the Taliban’s brutal attack on her life, Malala Yousafzai quickly became an international icon known for bravery and resilience. But away from the cameras and crowds, she spent years struggling to find her place in an unfamiliar world. Now, for the first time ever, Malala takes us beyond the headlines in Finding My Way—a vulnerable, surprising memoir that buzzes with authenticity, sharp humor, and tenderness.

Finding My Way is a story of friendship and first love, of anxiety and self-discovery, of trying to stay true to yourself when everyone wants to tell you who you are. In it, Malala traces her path from high school loner to reckless college student to a young woman at peace with her past. Through candid, often messy moments like nearly failing exams, getting ghosted, and meeting the love of her life, Malala reminds us that real role models aren’t perfect—they’re human.

In this astonishing memoir, Malala reintroduces herself to the world, sharing how she navigated life as someone whose darkest moments threatened to define her narrative—while seeking the freedom to find out who she truly is. Finding My Way is an intimate look at the life of a young woman taking charge of her destiny—and a deeply personal testament to the strength it takes to be unapologetically yourself.

A Beautiful Memoir

I loved that Malala Yousafzai read her memoir because it made it very personal, emotional and beautiful for me. I laughed, cried and felt as if she was telling me her story directly.

She is a legend

She is an inspiration. I enjoyed learning about her journey to adulthood. I enjoyed her first book, and I knew this book would not disappoint

Passion and Struggles

Malala’s passion for her own higher education and speaking engagements took a toll on her mental health. Malala is the only source of family income. Navigating Oxford’s studies and social life was a struggle. Surgery over many years to reconstruct her face then finding love on her terms not her parents. Malala narrates her journey from that fateful day on the school bus. An amazing woman!

Good read for any young person facing tough times

I appreciated the honesty and vulnerability. The pressure Malala was under at such a young age was unimaginable. The worst part was listening to her describe the stress and worry about what others think.
College is hard enough without the world watching your every move.

Authentic

Having taught her first book for year, I cannot speak highly enough of the amazing woman Malala shows herself to be in this book. Outstanding.

Amazing and Truly Inspirational

Malala's journey to embracing her authentic self was so powerful and yet, somehow, resonate. There are not sufficient words to thank her for sharing her incredible story with us.

Really helped me breathe!

I have been a fan of Malala since her first book. This update is jist what my soul needed. She shared her journey, humanity and truth in such a humble, real-girl way that I could hear myself in her. I love her honesty about her family dynamics. Congrats, Malala, on your happiness. I thank you for sharing so what what PTSD looks like and how unique it is to each person. Thank you for BEING and allowing us to witness. So much LOVE!
