    US/Iran Family

    It was interesting to compare this book with the recently viewed movie on tv. I enjoyed the story and am having fun seeing differences between the book and the movie. I am still reading the book each day and will likely finish it within 3-4 days. I am so happy with the purchase, condition of the book, prompt delivery, and price.

  • More Compelling and Detailed than the Movie

    After watching the movie, I wanted to read the book. The truth is the truth and the book's details are quite compelling and TRUE, no matter the politics of the day. Betty overcame a high risk of death countless times. This book illustrates living as an American in the Islamic State of Iran in a compelling way. The movie was good. The book is really good.

  • Very Informative, intense and haunting.

    Tells of insight into the Islamic world with examples of how women have no rights. Should be REQUIRED reading in every school room in the United States of America.

  • Nice experience.

    It’s a pocket book, but the font is ok. I liked it. It satisfies my curiosity with a small amount of money.
