Persepolis 2: The Story of a Return by Marjane Satrapi

I didn't like this book as much as the original Persepolis. I think this is because the original book dealt more with the socio-political situation in Iran, while this sequel dealt more with the author's personal coming-of-age story. While it is perfectly valid for an autobiographical story to deal with the author's coming of age, it's just not as interesting for me personally. Nothing against the book - it's still perfectly decent - I just happen to prefer the first one.
