emotional informative tense slow-paced

3.0

Very informative but I couldn't be immersed to the plot, though I'm satisfied with the twist and turns at the last quarter of the book. The beginning was packed with burdensomeness I even had to stop after only few chapters but after that it became distant to where we should be focusing: The Kite Runner.

There are a lot of parts that seemed unnecessary to me. I wanted Hassan but I'm reading about Amir's wife that he met in America like what. why.

And I hated the main character till the end, it's disappointing.
