Crying in H Mart by Michelle Zauner

challenging emotional inspiring reflective sad medium-paced

5.0

So well written. I was moved to tears in many parts. It was difficult to read her raw storytelling of her mother's journey battling cancer and her ultimate loss. Her writing was so effortless that it made the discussions on grief, guilt, regret easy to feel and understand. 
I loved the descriptions of food and how she connected not only to her mother but to her korean roots through it.
I just wanted to give Michelle a hug 🫂 and tell her how proud her mother would be of her. And how we all make mistakes as adolescents and young adults but its how we grow from them.
What a great start to the new year.
