what a gorgeous book, words flowing from story to story, a deeply personal insight into michelle’s life and journey through grief. 

the haverford and bryn mawr references towards the beginning were pretty cool to know — 100% a must read for bico students

This was such a crazy experience, I’ve heard good things about it here and there and since I loved Zauner and her music discography, I decided to pick it up. I didn’t pick it up for months until I decided to bring it for reading material on the plane and I really did just devour this in the span of 4 days.
Zauner’s descriptions for her family and food are so vivid it really does make you feel at home with all the memories you’ve experienced. There’s so many things that tickled a part of my brain where I know something similar has happened in my life being an Asian immigrant in Canada.
Crying in H Mart is a perfect celebration of life and family and I loved so many bits of it even if  some of it is as mundane as reminiscing the many times when someone cooks you a meal you will never forget and trying to make it years down the line. This book does a lot for me and if you’re a fan of biographical books and or Zauner in general, I’d highly recommend this book. It pairs well with Psychopomp and Soft Sounds from Another Planet.
