What it tells you

Season two opens and the first thing Isaac picks up is a graphic novel about two girls in a small town who fall for each other and have no idea what to do about it. Last season's opener was Dune Messiah. Somebody in the writers' room decided the reading list was going to start saying things.

The book

Cover of I Love This Part by Tillie Walden

I Love This Part

Tillie Walden · 2015 · graphic novel

Tillie Walden published this short book with a small London press in 2015, and three years later her memoir Spinning won an Eisner. Walden draws silence better than most novelists write dialogue, which makes this the perfect book for the one guy in the group who doesn't talk.
