THIS is exactly what i want from a “celebrity” memoir — juicy shit that happened but alsoooo meaningful reflection on how it shaped you

10/10 insight & vignettes around being biracial, growing up in korea, coming into partner/wife/mother roles, taking a risky but rewarding career leap, & handling intergenerational trauma as it manifests within a family

bonus points for being whip-smart & absolutely freaking hysterical

I love listening to memoirs narrated by the author, there's something so deeply felt in their voices about their experiences. I was initially jarred at the level of crassness that Youngmi has, but I quickly loved how quick she was and how her voice really shone.
