spellygirl's review against another edition
3.0
The audiobook was decently read, though I sped it up to 1.2, which I doesn't typically do. If you're into the topic and don't mind a lot of food descriptions, I would recommend giving it a try. I felt I learned more about Korean culture, and having issues communicating in your origin country. And of course the cancer journey and stuff, but I knew more about that to begin with. Overall I would probably have liked it better if it wasn't so hyped up and increased my expectations so much.

mcnan's review against another edition
I had the pleasure of listening to her give a book talk about this, but, admittedly, had not even read the book at the time. I wish I would have, because I would have experienced her presence with a new weight and understanding.
Highly recommend the audiobook.
