And the Mountains Echoed by Khaled Hosseini
4.0

Khaled is an insane storyteller, and it shows. Parts of the novel were akin to a gripping screenplay from a Scorsese film. The non-linear storytelling was refreshing and quite interesting. I was happy with the ending; there was immense satisfaction as to how things turned out, all things considered, but also this weird gaping hole in my chest, which is what most authors expect their readers to feel.

I had a great time reading this. I didn't cry as much as I expected, but the last chapter got me. I wholeheartedly recommend this to anyone who's considering reading it.
