My #DEAR: The Loneliness of the Long-Distance Cartoonist by Adrian Tomine
And this particular book was so fun because it's almost like a graphic memoir in short stories. So it begins, I believe, in 1982 in Fresno when he's a kid, and it moves linearly, so we like, grow up with him a little bit and seeing him draw himself as a kid. And then he becomes kind of a wonderkin as a graphic novelist, and he gets a lot of flak for that

I just wanted to share one of my favorite pages from the book that just made me laugh really hard and also gives you a sense of his style and voice if you're not familiar with his work
