I just finished reading the kite runner and I think it might just be one of the best books I have read. The way the characters were portrayed, the descriptions- short yet vivid, and to be able to imagine something I had no proper information on(am talking about Afghanistan’s history) was truly exhilarating. I have searched for books which can capture my attention, and be able to have the ability to keep me motivated enough to finish the whole book. This book has been able to do exactly that. Kept me on the edge of my seat, as I turned every page, nearing the end of the book. Along with being relevant this was truly something. To be able to interwine fact and fiction so gracefully, is exactly what I wanted.
What about you guys? Have you guys read The kite runner? If so how did you find it? … ngl the movie did not do justice to the original book that’s for sure.
I sobbed so hard when I read it. It was my friend’s copy. Back then I had not much money to buy a lot of the books I want so I borrow any time I can. Now I have a job with extra money to spend on my hobby and I bought a copy of the book for my personal library. Idk if I will ever reread it again but it left such a deep impact on me that I never thought twice about buying it. Maybe one day when I need a good cry I’ll read it again.
