I recently finished this as part of the tandem global readalong. I loved the mix of comics and prose and it was a really refreshing format which was really engaging. The idea of using the modern workplace setting with fantastical/mythological characters from South-east Asian folklore who had to adapt to the corporate life was a great and funny to see how it worked out. It was great to see how the characters were supposed to look and the comic secrions really brought them to life. I found myself flying through this as it was an easy read.
