**Following my tradition of only rating a memoir when I genuinely believe it's 4 or 5 stars**
The things that prevent me from giving this a higher rating are 100% on me and my personal reactions to the content, which are due to my dysfunctional relationship with my mother-- no need to get into that here. I had never heard of Michelle before this book started getting all of this critical acclaim, so I had basically no context going into this.

Really sad, vivid description of a woman losing her mother and learning about her life in the process.  Though sad, this book was really powerful and an amazing tribute to her mom and culture she explored throughout the book.  In addition to immersively describing grief and the final months and days of her mother’s life, the author is an incredible food writer - describing different Korean dishes in a way that you can almost taste them.
