Oh yes, Khaled Hosseini has once again stirred my tear ducts like I had never known my tears before. This book put a burn mark on my soul so deep inside. Once again, I closed a story of his with a heavy heart, a lighthearted laugh and a hearty tear.

I really can't get over how much I love Hosseini's work. Having read my all-time favourite (which really can never be surpassed, A Thousand splendid Suns) last summer, I was so enchanted by his writing that I couldn't help but read more of his stories. And this I did by reading the kite runner, or 'de vliegeraar' in dutch. An incredibly affecting story about Hassan and Amir living as friends in Afghanistan and losing their path in friendship. It introduces you to the raw meaning of friendship and the hard divides some people face in terms of social classes. How Hosseini portrays the setting of the wars in Afghanistan also really makes you gasp. He is able to make these enormously vivid and make the pain and suffering tangible. I really can't describe how hard I enjoyed this book. Or at least how much I enjoy Khaled Hosseini's writing style and inspirational stories. His books are a heartfelt experience that touch you deep in your heart and limbs.

I beg everyone to pick up a book by Khaled Hosseini one day. They are so worth it, I promise you.
