I ended up reading and listening to 3 versions of this book on Libby because it took me over 3 weeks to finish it, balancing between work deadlines and expiring library loans! ๐ This memoir is so good and relatable for me, and I believe for many others as well. It tells a universal story about being a daughter, finding yourself, and the complex relationship we have with our parents. The author, Michelle Zauner, shares her memories with her mother, which are mostly tied to the flavors and traditions of Korean dishes. Her mom, just like my dad, truly savored every bite of her meals. My most cherished moments with my dad revolve around discovering and enjoying food together.
