Crying in H Mart by Michelle Zauner

emotional hopeful inspiring reflective sad medium-paced

4.25

I absolutely loved this book, and was really interested to read it after hearing that it was written by the lead singer of Japanese Breakfast. I'd never read an autobiography before, and this book did not disappoint as it was so fascinating, engaging and honest. The way Michelle Zauner writes is so accessible and straightforward, but also extremely thoughtful and descriptive - I particularly loved her intensely detailed, mouthwatering descriptions of Korean food. She did also make me cry quite a lot with some of the heartbreaking accounts of her mother's illness, which goes to show how raw and emotional Zauner's writing is. Overall a deeply interesting and moving insight into the authors life; I would definitely like to read more autobiographical books from now on.
