this was my 100th and final book of 2009 :-) and i really really enjoyed it! the back cover description was a bit misleading. i thought the story was about a group of women who got together and read novels. the beginning and ending and parts of the middle were about the group of women, but there was so much more to this book. nafisi was a teacher in iran during the war and revolution and the book is about her life and how novels she read and taught were parallel to life in iran. it was such a great story-a great way to end the year. she has a list of suggested books to read and i took a lot of books from there. great great read!!
