Hosseini’s books feel to me like a rollercoaster, once I’m in I’m in until the end. Lots of dark themes in the book, I enjoyed a thousand splendid suns more. This is a good book to read, not necessarily enjoyable, but hold themes and thoughts that will remain with you for a long time.

The book, I honestly loved it so, so much. The themes of brotherhood was displayed throughout the entire book, yet it was subtle and I wasn’t expecting the plot twist at all. The emotive language of Hassan and just him in general, I literally aspire to be like him now.

Hassan’s death was kinda of a surprise, so I didn’t get to deep it tbh

 

But overall, the book was really, really good. You could see Amir’s development, ‘For you, a thousand times over.’ Anything that reminded him of Hassan would shed him to tears and I’m really happy Assef got what he got. I’d read this book a thousand times over.

This was a very heavy read, I had to take breaks while reading. But it's a masterpiece, incredibly well written, especially considering this was the author's debut, I'm impressed.
