Aya of Yop City is a series of graphic novels about a studious 19 year old woman in an Ivory Coast city, and her various friends, and their families. It's so funny, and gets better as it goes along and you get into the characters. Plus: Graphic novel--doesn't take long to read! So won't injure your TBR pile too severely.
They published the first three French tomes as one book: Life in Yop City...
...and now they're publishing the final three: Love in Yop City.
This is a series I want to own, cause it's definitely re-readable. There's so much going on, and the pictures are gorgeous. I think they're putting them out in one French volume soon, but I'll get the English one so I can try and push it on people. Read this! Maybe if I leave it laying around at work... and I think Harvey would love it.

Going to have to seriously consider this for Kat, my gdaughter.
I tried to find the "age level" thingy -- one site says 13 and up.
