Crying in H Mart by Michelle Zauner

challenging emotional inspiring reflective sad medium-paced

4.0

A terribly fantastic and accurate mirror for all something-American children, whether hailing from parents in interracial relationships, with immigrant backgrounds, or both. Zauner shares painfully honest depictions of her thoughts and feelings, even when they can make her seem somewhat villainous. Such scenes were both difficult to read and incredible to experience. Zauner has done a fantastic job showing everyone how human she is, and by extension, how human we all are, even when being so is hard or ugly or unforgiving. This should be required reading for all adults.
