Amazing, I really have no idea what to else to say than WOW! the storytelling is immersive and you immediately get sucked into the storyline.

Read this book for an English assessment, and unlike the usual ”boring and outdated“ books I was forced to analyse, Hosseini knows how to take your breath away and keep your eyes glued to the book. As a child of immigrants I could relate to certain aspects of the story as well.

Such an excellent story teller. Hosseini painted such an immersive story that i could see, hear and feel everything happening in the book. This and the book thief are the only books to ever make me cry and that is owed to the expressive mastery of the author.

This book.... This book..
Oh Man this book!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The number of exclamation marks are enough for you guys to know how I feel about this book.

I loved it, I loved every single page of it, I loved every single word of it. Ahhhhhh. There is no other word, no other feeling except love.

From the very beginning to the very end, i loved it. Ppl might think, why it took me sooo long to read this... The answer is i was busy and in a slump, but when my exams arrived (my final exams, they are going on RN) I got super productive and kept reading it religiously.

Every person should read it atleast once in their lifetime, but I know it is not possible because you will want to read it over and over again.

The pain. The heartbreak. The cries. The tears.

This book broke me. Broke my heart. Broke me a thousand time over.

Ahhh Khaled Hosseni, ahh....

Why did you broke my already broken heart?

This book is beautifully heartbreaking.

I loved it.

Love A❤️

AMAZING BOOK!!! Read this in HS for a class but I loved it. There were some very hard to read scenes due to how graphic they are to where I cried from how graphic they were but other than that amazingly written book!!!
