DID NOT FINISH

DNF at 30%. I couldn't stand the main character. I felt sad about this because I loved A Thousand Splendid Suns and reading about Afghanistan.

"A boy who can’t stand up for himself become a man who can’t stand up for anything”
My favourite line. This book contains lots of emotional baggage so be sure to be mentally prepared before reading it cause it’s going to take you to one hell of a ride.

Captivating and emotional. Simple words seeping deeply, wrapping you in and making you feel every bit of it.
