First of all I really admire Joshua Wong and respect his efforts in fighting for democracy.

This book broadly has 3 parts. The introduction describes Joshua Wong's life and Hong Kong (HK) politics up to the protests for democracy. During this we get a good explanation of how HK is governed and how its' autonomy is reduced and replaced with mainland chinese laws.

After that we get a diary from Joshua Wong which he wrote during his prison time detailing his time there and how he stays informed of the situation in HK and tries to fight for democracy out of his cell.

The end of the book consists of a manifesto for democracy and a call to action for every citizen to stand of for their rights.

Well what I like is that we get a good look at who Joshua Wong is and what he believes in. Unfortunately the structure of the book sometimes seems a bit unfitting and the manifesto a bit unclear at times. Also I don't like how mainland chinese people are partly portrayed as being less behaved than HKers. I can understand why he might feel like this but I don't believe he is doing himself any favors.

Due to this I wouldn't recommend this book to anyone. But if you're interested in Joshua Wong or want to read a bit about the HK protests this might interest you!
