Hey

I just finished reading this book, which I would personally call a Masterpiece, especially since it was a first book!!!👏👏👏

The Kite Runner, for some reason is a lesser known book than it should be, it has been doing well and reaching people through word of mouth, something I am also doing now!!!😉 😆

The book takes you through a journey and makes you experience a plethora of emotions you wouldnt normally experience while reading a book like this one...

I personally recommend this book to everyone who likes to read...A MUST READ...😳

Take care,
Shruti

Okay, I've started reading it and it's pretty sad. I hate Assef. MY GOD!

Amir is one selfish person and i REALLY wonder whether people like Hassan exist. I feel so sorry for him. What a pure heart he has. And this loyalty! WoW!

I just finished this one! Awesome writing!
I loved the way that the love/hate relationship between father and son was handled..one side the guy is in awe of his father and on the other end he totally dislikes him!!! Very well written!

I read Kite Runner. Hard to believe that this is Khalid Hossaini's first book. Simply Awesome!!

I would def recommend this one. The protagonist is flawed. It shows flawed characters. Also it showed us the polictical scenario of Afghanistan during Russian invasion and then Taliban reign, its effects on people. One thing I should give credit to him is how khalid showed the prejudice between the Pathan and Hazaara people...how the "Domination" factor occurs.. that its just not about black and white..it occurs in all forms where people want power.

Def a Must Read! Go and grab the book!! 😃
