Finished Persepolis by Marjane Satrapi.
I didn’t realise second half will also feature Iran and the life after revolution. A very interesting look at part of recent history I knew nothing about. Highly recommended if you don’t mind graphic novels and memoirs.

Also read Old Man’s War by John Scalzi.
This is my second book by Scalzi and he is reaching status of my favourite author. It’s an easy to read space, military sci-fi. Another highly recommended book for sci-fi fans.

I read Ursula Le Guin and Anne McCaffrey when I was very young, so while I remember enjoying the books, I don’t remember much about them, and probably didn’t fully appreciate them. Should give them another read.
Octavia Butler’s work look interesting, thanks for the recommendation.
