They Said They Wanted Revolution: A Memoir of My Parents by Neda Toloui-Semnani

2.0

I got this book as Amazon’s First Read book to learn more about Iran. While I did learn a lot, it was hard to keep up with because of the timelines and different countries & names. It finally picked up about 60% through when the author escaped Iran with her family. I’m not an author, but I wish she sprinkled her journal entries throughout the memoir instead of at the end. I started skimming because I just wanted to finish it.
