"Stop crying! Save your tears for when your mother dies."

If you're Asian you probably ever heard that from your parents mouth. A simple memoir about mom. Beautifully written and so relatable.

Born as Asian-American, Zauner had a complicated relationship with her mother. They love each other but didn't know how to express it. They keep secrets from each other. I relate to that...

When mom get sick, our world fall. Things are messed up  and we realize how mom works really hard to keep things in order.

This memoir somehow made me want to die before my mom. I don't think I can endure the grief and sadness of losing my mom.
