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've been reading Circe by Madeline Miller. I had it on a to-read list for a long time and finally started it. I've really been enjoying it so far.

I listened to the audiobook of this a few months ago. I really enjoyed the story
