Finishing American Born Chinese

I found this book to be one of my favorite reads so far! It was easy to follow, and it wasn't hard to fit all the reading in for the week. I even wanted to read father than the required length. In the beginning I was hesitant since it was a comic book, but I ended up enjoying it a lot. For it being my first comic book, I'd say it was a success. There were a few moments where I was confused with what was going on however. The ending was completely surprising. I didn't expect that crazy of an ending. It was interesting to see how everything tied together in the end. Chin-Kee and Danny become their true forms. Chin-Kee becomes the Monkey King, while Danny becomes Jin Wang. And Wei-Chen is the Monkey King's son. This comic book is a story about wanting to fit in. Although the author shows it in a drastic form, it's realistic. I was confused in the beginning as to how these stories were going to tie together, but I am happy with how the book ended. It's an interesting way to view this topic rather than reading a standard novel. And it goes to show you to embrace who you are, and don't try to hide it. Everyone is unique in their own way. You can try to be someone you aren't but you can't change who you are. It's a very realistic topic that many people seem to struggle with. I liked how the meaning behind these crazy stories is actually relevant. Throughout the book, it seemed like every seen had an importance to the bigger story.
