2011 Reading #23: American Born Chinese by Gene Luen Yang

Books 1-10.
Books 11-20.
21. The Tombs of Atuan by Ursula K. Le Guin.
22. Rebellion at Christiana by Margaret Hope Bacon.

23. American Born Chinese by Gene Luen Yang. A graphic novel about cultural identity, very much in the vein of The Woman Warrior except brighter and male-centered and aimed at young adults. I liked the art and I liked how Yang wove the three different storylines together; it's a bit tidy, but it works.
