Lipstick Jihad

I recently finished this memoir by Azadeh Moaveni. Lipstick Jihad follows an American born woman as she decides to move back to Iran and reconnect with her past. In the process she becomes a correspondent for TIME magazine. While she's there she comes to terms with what life in Iran is really like for women and whether or not that will jive with her thoughts on how she wants her life to be. It's a great, quick read and gives an interesting inside view of a country that is in the headlines so much lately. I really enjoyed it and thought it gave an thoughtful perspective on living in a country that uses terror to control its people.
