The American Dream? A Journey on Route 66 Discovering Dinosaur Statues, Muffler Men, and the Perfect Breakfast Burrito by Shing Yin Khor

3.0

Route 66 goes through my hometown of Dwight, IL and I stayed in a little roadside motel when I travelled out west many years ago. I liked the scenery scenes in this book, and I liked the author’s attempts to reconcile her notions of America with the realities she encountered traveling Route 66 from LA to Chicago. The reflection is a bit thin, and I didn’t leave with any great insights. It’s an ok graphic memoir.
