American Born Chinese

I can't decide whether or not I really enjoyed American Born Chinese. It was okay, but the stories were easy to read, but for some reason I just didn't really get into it. The art style is simple, and flat. It's nothing special, really. I didn't find it too interesting, and it actually kind of bothered me.
Of the three stories, the second two were more focused on racial stereotype and fitting in. In the first story, Jin Wang, a second generation immigrant child is struggling to fit in in America. The story is a little cookie cutter, and predictable. You can basically guess the ending off the bat.
The third story is about an american boy and his Chinese cousin that visits him. Danny is often embarrassed by his Chinese cousin Chin-kee (chinky), as h posses many American stereotypes for the Chinese. These two stories are practically the same, but from different perspectives. It's perplexing how something like race can cause so many issues with self esteem, and such. The over all moral of the comics is to just be yourself, something I feel is kind of overplayed in stories like this, but is a message that a lot of the times struggles to get through to people.
