Oh, God. 

I'm not doing very well lately and reading is a nice distraction, but this book tore out my heart. Probably should have waited on this one, I've been crying for the last few chapters. 

Extremely beautiful, but so much pain and suffering. I appreciate learning about the war and seeing what life in Afghanistan was like over the years, Islamophobia is all too real and it's time we get that over with.

I'm gonna read The Kite Runner now too.
