Tammy Pierce is unlovable. [Vol. 1] - Esther Watson

Loosely based on a teenager's diary from the 1980s found in a gas-station bathroom, UNLOVABLE is the remarkable story of Tammy Pierce, and her sophomore year of high school in 1985. From the first day of school to winter break, LA artist Esther Pearl Watson's lovingly grotesque drawings guide us through Tammy's teenage ups and downs - dealing with tampons, teasing, crushes, The Smiths, lice and gym showers to name but a few. Tammy's life isn't pretty, but female readers will find much that resonates in this endlessly charming and hilarious book.
