My favorite book of all time. Reading the stories of two women of different generations and upbringings in Afghanistan, I was blown away by Hosseini’s ability to convey what it is like to be a woman. Content warnings should be taken seriously. This book is difficult and raw, but it is also the most touching and tender book I have read

trying and failing so hard to not bawl my eyes out. jesus christ. this book left me so broken but also so inspired. the events in this felt too close to what’s happening today and left me heartbroken. this book is honestly a must read for all. be prepared to cry a lot in this book. 5/5 stars

It’s a gift to write a book on heartbreaking and challenging topics in a way that humanises such a horrific experience that is very real with stories often untold. A must read for all.
