Hello and welcome! My name is Emma and I've been a bookseller for over a decade. I also write fantasy under the name E. M. Epps. This blog features my Two-Paragraph Book Reviews. One paragraph from me. One from the book. Here's why I keep it short.

Review: “The Complete Persepolis” by Marjane Satrapi

Thumbs up for The Complete Persepolis by Marjane Satrapi. Memoir/graphic novel.

Interesting and informative look at a young Iranian woman’s early life.

“I’m happy to see you so well-settled here. Now you must make an effort, you must become somebody. I don’t care what you do later, only try to be the best. Even if you become a cabaret dancer, better that you dance at the Lido than in a hole in the wall.” — The narrator’s mother
