Kiss & Tell: A Romantic Resume Ages 0 to 22
A graphic memoir by MariNaomi, published by Harper Perennial
Available wherever books are sold

Order it online at indiebound!

In this fresh and offbeat graphic memoir, critically-acclaimed comic book artist MariNaomi chronicles her time as a misfit
teen and young woman looking for love in San Francisco, while bringing to light issues of identity and sexuality.

The books charm lies in MariNaomis amused and loving perspective on her curious, tough, occasionally foolish
younger self: she knows she may have misunderstood the dynamics of her relationships, but she can still
evoke the intensity of her feelings.
The New York Times
