Khaled Hosseini, The Kite Runner (2003)

Wow. What an emotional, unbelieveable, overwhelming story. I firmly believe that fiction is reality with different names, & this fiction is beautiful & horrific.

Near the end, I wanted to shake Amir, the protagonist, for still having such poor judgement, such a poor sense of what's right, after all that he supposedly learned from his trip to Afghanistan & his journey within.

I can't wait to read A Thousand Splendid Suns.

This book was passed on to Sherry Dunn.
