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.

Just finished Nation by Terry Pratchett and it was one of the most intense books I've read this year. It's supposed to be YA so didn't expect it to be this dark but it really pulls you in. If you like Terry Pratchett definitely give it a read.

I read this a little over a year ago, I was surprised there was a Pratchett book I hadn't read yet, and was blown away with how good it was. One of his best books in my opinion.
