  1. I remember reading the kite runner in my senior year as a project. The book left me with mixed feelings and emotions, especially for the main character. What do you feel about the book?

    • Thank your for your comment. The Kite Runner is one of my favorite books for two reasons:
      1) Khaled Hosseini’s writing is so descriptive, it brings the scenes to life. The text says it all: emotion, sound, color, shape and even smell.
      2) Characters. The characters are really realistic. And you can see them develop and grow smoothly as your read.
      so yeah, I really like the book.

      I’m sorry if that was too long!

        As for The Mountains Echoed..I don’t know. I couldn’t get into the story. I am interested in what you would think about it, actually.
