DNF because I did a terrible job researching the book and turns out it’s about coping with her mom’s death due to cancer. It’s very clear that this is the topic of the book but somehow I didn’t notice until I started it…

A beautiful, heartbreaking memoir on the illness and loss of Michelle’s mother, intricately woven with her relationship with Korean food and  her own identity, and how all these three things combine to become one. I listened to this as an audiobook and I’m sure more than one person has seen me waiting at a red light ugly sobbing over my steering wheel.
