Charlotte reviewed Crying in H Mart by Michelle Zauner

…Beautifully written memoir

Disappointing
3 stars
I was so excited about this fun queer romance, but unfortunately I just couldn't get behind it. I'm not sure if my tastes have just changed since reading McQuinston's RWRB a few years ago, but I hated the writing style. I found myself editing in my head while reading this one. I even noticed a sentence missing a period. 🫠
I certainly didn't have expectations of exceptional prose for One Last Stop - I was just there for a good time. But, the style was too clunky for me to enjoy it.

The writing is really not to my taste so far, but I'm trying to give it a chance.

So glad I was introduced to Ursula Le Guin's writing. Most of them were good, some of them were phenomenal, and a few of them were pretty boring.
