Hosseini's writing always has a poetic feeling to it, I would say this book is of course more "enjoyable" than The Kite Runner or A Thousand Splendid Suns if only because our characters are not subject to the same amount of violence. This story is more.. Floaty? The only thing keeping it from 5 stars is that the ending feels too much like ATSS.

I’m always happy to pick up a Khalid Hosseini novel and I’m glad to say I loved this one as well BUT it just fell flat for me compared to the kite runner and a thousand splendid suns
