Reviews of The Three rooms in Valerie's Head

"Ingenious... Valerie’s poignant romances open larger vistas where music and imagination offer wit and insight beyond the grayness of daily life." — Library Journal
 

"…snortingly funny with a robust and off-kilter imagination..these short tales almost always act like riddles, sending the reader back to the beginning to figure out what makes the characters behave that way. Lightly balanced between writer and artist, each the right amount of crazy." - Etelka Lehoczky for NPR books
  
"Enthrallingly weird... [its] grounding core gives this off-kilter graphic novel welcome emotional depth." — Booklist

"Berry’s a master cartoonist, adept at conveying movement, and physical expression. It's poetic, mischievous, packed with wit and artistry, and you’ll want to re-read it – possibly as soon as you’ve finished." - Slings and Arrows

​Funny, poignant, surreal and still warmly emotional and human — a delight to read." — Forbidden Planet

"Funny and weird... Valerie exhumes her love life by hanging out with all of the guys that didn’t work out, and the one that might still." — Barnes & Noble, Best Comics of February 2018

“Exquisitely structured for maximum satisfaction and laugh-out-loud comedy… Dan Berry’s cartooning is delicious.” — Page 45

"strangely funny, and intensely quirky….dealing with issues of loneliness and isolation, relationships, and memory, it all builds up to something that synthesizes art and ideas, telling of a life in one woman’s head, seemingly trapped in the mistakes of the past." Comicon

"A darkly beautiful meditation on obsession & memory" _ Richard Bruton

"deep and funny, this is a universal comic that so many people will enjoy."  _ Geeks Worldwide
