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 finished up Martha Wells - Star Wars “Razors Edge” and have moved on to Isaac Asimovs “The End of Eternity” it’s my last scifi book of his that’s related to his broader Foundations universe.

Although the three stand alone scifi novels were eventually alluded to in the Foundation universe. It’s not really related though. Just a passing reference to a bygone time.
