Dragon's Breath and Other True Stories by MariNaomi, 381 pages.
Most of the autobiographical stories here are intimate, while still seeming brief, and incomplete, as if the reader is assumed to already be familiar with the characters, and the back-story involved. This sounds critical, but it isn't really. MariNaomi's story-telling style works well, and most of the vignettes are engaging and enjoyable. You are coming in during the middle of the movie, so just enjoy it.
The art works well and enhances the tales without overwhelming them. I remember the stories as if I read them alone without the art. The story about the author and her childhood friends going to a party with the members of Duran Duran had a nice visual twist at the end.
