Crying in H Mart won the 2021 Goodread Choice Awards for Memoir & Autobiography.
This is a hard book to rate and review as it is such a personal account from Michelle Zauner to the point I was sometimes thinking “Am I supposed to be reading this?”
This is a story about family and grief, the search for connections, validation, and identity.
Michelle beautifully tells us about her relationship with her mother while growing up, their fights and friction points and her last days alive.
I felt privileged to be able to read these episodes of Michelle's life, as well as her love story. I wish there was a little less food involved, hence the 4 stars. Yet again, be advised that I was suffering with stomach flu while reading which may have negatively affected the experience.
I definitely recommend the reading.
