Kite Runner

The story completely drew me in. A simple and yet so vivid read. This book will take you on a journey.

A very heartfelt and informative read.

interesting reading about a country and life I knew little about

I loved this book and always put it on my top ten list. I thought it was honest, informative and emotionally engaging. After reading it, I listened to an interview of the author and then the author reading the audiobook. It definitely meant more to me the second reading (or, actually, listening).

A lovely book but with some shocking scenes.

I initially thought i would hate this, I am not normally a fan of "topical" books, but I really enjoyed it. The book tells the story of two boys growing up 40 years ago in a very different afganistan to what we know now.

The story follows one of the boys to adulthood and his return to the Afganistan of 5 years ago.

good stuff.

It was a good read but it left me feeling cold, it all felt a bit slight somehow.

I really enjoyed this - would recommend it

good book, like mdixoncm says it does have some disturbing scenes but its well worth the read.
