Crying in H Mart by Michelle Zauner

adventurous dark emotional funny hopeful inspiring reflective sad medium-paced

5.0

This was a fantastic book. The people, the food, the grief. It felt almost as if I could feel the pain through the pages. I loved every minute of it, and now am tempted to look up Maangchi on Youtube and see if she is still there (if you know, you know). I am not mixed-race, nor am I Korean (or from anywhere in Asia), but this book made me feel almost seen. I've struggled with manic depression for most of my life and while Michelle Zauner never strictly addresses it, she does make it obvious that she is struggling. I would definitely recommend reading this book, no matter your circumstances or reading preferences <3
