If you laugh and cry it has to have 5 stars. But also I learned something

Audio only works for my brain when it’s nonfiction and even with my brain/incompetent ears, this book is *perfect* for audio. I need everyone to read it with Youngmi’s delivery (because she narrates). I cackled, there were emotions, there was an excellent gushing session over this book with the book acquaintance from afar whose recommendation brought it into my life to begin with. If you like funny books, memoir, or just nonfiction, read this one and then join the conversation about hairy butts. Thank you. Goodbye.

Dang Youngmi has been through so much. I’m glad I listened to her narrate the audiobook

I am so thankful she shared her story- it was good for my soul. 
Her honesty is so beautiful. 
The historic explanations were great and helped me with the understanding of my own family dynamic growing up.
