My thoughts and feelings about Persepolis are that the book is a really great book. I really like it and I would recommend others to read this book. This book is pretty graphic but not too graphic. It has a lot of swearing in it and it has a part in it where it shows a guard peeing on a prisoner and it shows some things. If you don’t like those things in a book then I wouldn’t read it.

What I like about the book is that it talks a lot about the war between Iran and Iraq. I love wars and I get interested when people get tortured. I don’t know why but it interests me to see things like that.

What I dislike about the book is all of the swearing in it. Swearing doesn’t make a book good. In my opinion it makes it so you don’t want to read the book. When there are sexual things in a book I don’t really like to read it because I don’t like reading about stuff like that. When you read a book that has things in it that you don’t like then you don’t get interested in the book. That’s the same way with me. When I read a book that has things in it that I don’t like, I don’t get interested in the book anymore.

The value and meaning of the book is that the girl Marji goes through all of these rough times through the war, going to her friends, friends dying, moving away from friends and losing people that she loves. Marji loses an uncle that was her hero and a boyfriend that cheated on her. I would recommend the book to others because I believe that it has a lot of great meanings in the book.

In the end of the book I believe that Marji’s parents are going to die because of old age or someone comes and kills them. I believe that something is going to happen that she doesn’t like.
