Persepolis 2: The Story of a Return by Marjane Satrapi

dark funny informative reflective fast-paced

2.75

I found this second book slightly underwhelming after enjoying the first book so much. I think that was partly due to the first book covering the time before and during the iranian war, which the poltical an dhistorical aspect interested me the most. However, this second book more focused on the narrators life, which while important, I found less engaging and interesting than the first. As I was reading this book, I was highlighting all of the interesting moments, facts and events that take place (which I would like to write up so I can help learn that content better) and it was really clear the difference in amount of highlighting in the first book than the second.
