520 This illustrated gift book of short comics illuminates
author Debbie Tung's experience as an introvert in an
extrovert's world. Presented in a loose narrative style
that can be read front to back or dipped into at one's
leisure, the book spans three years of Debbie's life, from
the end of college to the present day. In these early
years of adulthood, Debbie slowly but finally discovers
there is a name for her lifelong need to be alone: she's
an introvert.The first half of the book traces Debbie's
final year in college: socializing with peers, dating,
falling in love (with an extrovert!), moving in, getting
married, meeting new people, and simply trying to fit in.
The second half looks at her life after graduation:
finding a job, learning to live with her new husband,
trying to understand social obligations when it comes to
the in-laws, and navigating office life. Ultimately, Quiet
Girl sends a positive, pro-introvert message: our heroine
learns to embrace her introversion and finds ways to
thrive in the world while fulfilling her need for quiet
