Customer Reviews

would recommend, 10/10!

It was sooooo good. i had listened to her music before, so i had an idea of who she was but wow. this book is so beautifully written and it was heartbreaking in the best way. as someone who has grieved loved ones, it hit different

A tragic combination of coming of age and the graphic loss of a parent

As a 20 something going through a similar experience described in the book - it was cathartic to read the story of another woman growing up, maturing and being forced to come to terms with the premature loss of a parent. (Though is anyone ever really ready?) A touching story that everyone will have to over come in their lifetime described with heart breaking detail and a beautiful cultural perspective. This book will stick with me for a long time and I'm thankful the author was willing to share such an awful part of life in such a beautiful way. The book came in excellent condition and was exactly how described.

Nice memoir

A memoir filled with love for family, culture, and shared food

Love, loss, culture and identity.

Listened to the audio book - enjoyed hearing Korean words and dishes! Did not like main character - she is spoiled and sometimes rotten. This book will make you consider things you may take for granted.
