A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini
challenging
emotional
tense
3.5
I've never read a book so simultaneously hard to read and impossible to put down. This book made my heart hurt so badly, but I needed to know how it ended. It was satisfyingly bittersweet. I will probably never reread this book, but I will also never forget it. (Trigger Warnings: neglect, abuse both physical and sexual, child deaths, miscarriage and barrenness, violence with just enough gore to make me queasy but not enough to make me stop reading)
Graphic: Child death and Violence
Moderate: Child abuse, Miscarriage, and Sexual assault
