And the Mountains Echoed by Khaled Hosseini
5.0
Khaled Hosseini has a way with words that entices you, lures you in and captures your thoughts, dreams and emotions... and then you just can't put the damn book down. Each chapter had a different story to tell, but each sentence and story he put down in this book was clearly intricately thought out, with every detail planned and executed perfectly.
One small detail I thoroughly enjoyed about this book was that he did not tell you where you were, in relation to the characters. He would leave little hints for you to figure it out and while it wasn't difficult to figure out who's story you were reading, it was uniquely fun to find out through all the little hints dropped.
I originally picked this book up because, while working, I saw a woman crying and upon asking her what was wrong, she just pointed to the book. I'm so glad that day happened and I'm so glad that I had enough sense to pick the book up.
