A Thousand Splendid Suns
by Khaled Hosseini
This book was truly amazing. It is one of the best I have read in years! I truly felt for the characters and the hardships they experienced, even though I could obviously not identify with them myself as I have never lived in a war-torn country or a country where women have little say over the choices they make.
I felt so connected to the characters and empathized with them as if they were real people. The amazing thing about this book is that the story describes real events during times of social unrest and war, so these characters and their hardships seem realistic, and surely people living in Afghanistan during these times have lived similar lives.
Although the story is mostly tragic, it is also quite beautiful and hopeful.
I read the book over a period of 24 hours because I was simply so intrigued with the story. I would recommend this book to anyone.
The Kite Runner is next on my list!
