i spent money

Here's what I got:

Persepolis by Marjane Satrapi. A graphic novel about the author's childhood during the Islamic Revolution in Iran. SOOO GOOD. I finished it in about an hour. And I cried.

Reading Lolita in Tehran by Azar Nafisi. In keeping with my readings on Iran and the women affected by the regime in power. So far, it's intense. As I see more and more how our view of the world is jaded and twisted in America, I desire to understand what it's really like.

Body Outlaws: On Body Image and Identity edited by Ophira Edut. Looks interesting. The "barbies I'd like to see" is hilarious.

Tori Amos Tales of a Librarian and the new Ani Educated Guess. I'm set. And broke. Cheers to that. :)
