Finished Persepolis about a week or two ago. Really enjoyed it, moreso than the movie which I saw prior to reading the book. The book explains the series of events FAR more than the movie. I didn't like the movie as much because it left me very confused as to why things were happening. Ohwell. I started and finished Galapagos, which was wonderful. Wholly recommend, was similar to Cat's Cradle in some aspects. Not a perfect book, or a good Vonnegut work to start with, as he jumps around quite a bit before beginning to tie anything together. However, it has all the most wonderful aspects of any Vonnegut novel (human race destruction/human beings sucking in general for the most part). At this point I have read 9/14 Vonnegut novels! I also have read The Little Prince about 3
