A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini

dark emotional informative sad tense fast-paced

4.0

To be honest I found it hard to get into the book. I wasn't sure what to expect and the first 7 ish chapters didn't fully drag me into the book. But I still read on and I don't regret it. The book gives us two povs of two different women living in Afghanistan. It shows the burdens the women have to go through. I really "enjoyed" the book (like it's not cool what happens). The characters have a good story line, you can relate to them, some parts of this book (many) make your heart break for these women and other parts make your heart melt with the kindness, compassion and sacrifice. I also found this book so informing about Afghanistan, it shed a light to a situation I wasn't aware of. Overall I really like this book and I'd reccomend it.
