i loved this book. i went through an emotional rollercoaster and this was the most i have ever cried while reading a book. hoseinni does such a fantastic job of capturing amir’s emotions and that made me feel so engrained in the story. i also love how the book starts off in the present but then moves into a reflection on the past and back into the present. i love stories with time jumps (even if this wasn’t a big one).
