Reading Persepolis by Marjane Satrapi. It, and couple of others, were recommended here recently, and is somewhat of a new genre for me, memoir / biography in graphic novel format, graphic memoir?

Got the omnibus edition, “The Complete Persepolis”, it’s a pretty interesting read. It’s about young girl in Iran during the Islamic Revolution of 1979, at least the first volume, after that it’s about her life after that.

What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?

    I just finished up Under the Whispering Door by TJ Klune. I know this was a deeply personal book for him, but it feels like one of his weaker ones. I started Three Kinds of Lucky by Kim Harrison, and it’s got the interesting premise of what to do with magical waste.
