shadfield34 's review for:

A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini
5.0
emotional informative sad medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

Beautiful and heartbreaking. This book made me sob. I learnt a lot about Afghanistan's history.

This book feels especially hard hitting now with the Taliban governing once more.

This is my first Hosseini, and I'm looking forward to reading The Kite Runner, once I've processed the emotions of this read.
