Aya written by Marguerite Abouet and illustrated by Clément Oubrerie ... better and better

Over the past week I undertook a reading marathon and read volumes 2, 3 and 4 of Aya, the bande dessinée that is sweeping West Africa by storm... sympathetic characters, realistic storylines, lovely drawings.  Cannot complain. 

The coolest thing is that Abouet too has gotten bit by the library bug and apparently has set up a foundation to establish a neighborhood library in Abidjan.
