I borrowed this book from the library, and could really relate to much of what Barry was going through as she grew up. This memoir, told through the use of comics (or, if you prefer, sequential art), is funny and poignant. What I found familiar was when she focused on her Philippine family, like the lore of the aswang.

This was really enjoyable, and I'd like to own a copy for myself eventually, but for now, my broke self can always go to the library and check it out.
