So heartbreaking! It really slaps you in the face with how real and raw life truly can be sometimes. I couldn’t put the book down. It was like seeing a gruesome accident you couldn’t look away from. But Michelle’s voice in this was so great… it’s so descriptive and beautifully written. I knocked 1 star off because I didn’t love how she ended the book, but if you have the means to, I would grab the B&N exclusive edition to see extra pictures at the end. I also think if you don’t know a lot of Korean food or how the Korean language is pronounced, you might get caught up in that and it might take you out of the story a bit because she doesn’t always explain what every dish or translation is.
