OH MY GOD. i have no words. i am quite literally speechless, this book is a MASTERPIECE. if you have not read this, GO READ IT NOW but i warn you it is so sad. no seriously this book emotionally destroyed me but in the best way possible. i've never read something like this, but khaled hosseini's writing is just exquisite and there is just so much value in his storytelling. the imagery and how he describes afghanistan is so profound and i love how every small detail comes to be so important later on in the book, and all the characters are just developed SO. WELL. also i love those books where you understand the title after you've read it or when you're in the middle of it, and this is definitely one of those books. it's such a beautiful but heartbreaking study on love, loss, guilt, regret, and friendship. i feel like i'm blabbering i cannot form a single coherent thought right now but this book was absolutely breathtaking.
