5.0
I think this is the first time I've ever been able to confidently give a book a "must read" label. Persepolis was a beautiful telling of Satrapi's life. Her art style was simple, but she is able to convey deep meaning in one simple frame. There were several moments in reading Persepolis that I genuinely cried.
Persepolis is a must read. It tells an important and emotional story, and it is a quick read for those pressed for time. I really think everybody should read this book.
