I am so sorry but this book was just too painful to read through but I do have to say, what I like abt Khaled Housseini’s writing is that it is satisfyingly tolerable

What a wonderful read. Many sad moments, but ultimately a satisfying ending. Understand the pashto and farsi words without needing a translation is so rewarding. Definitely a compelling and fulfilling read for us brown muslims!
