The Kite Runner

Rating:★★★★★
Category:Books
Genre: History
Author:Khaled Hosseini
Five stars for Khaled Hosseini.

The book lover that I am, only in Hosseini's "The Kite Runner" was I able to feel the 'real' presence of the novel's characters. Until now, barely a day after I finished reading the book, I still feel the characters--two Afghan boys who had to separate because of the nation's and their inner wars.

Hosseini is a master of words, and each letter in his novel had been perfectly patched together--perfect and powerful enough to haunt and even kill your peace.

The Kite Runner is not a delightful read because it would only break your heart into the tiniest pieces possible but it will help you appreciate life, love, and friendship.

'The Kite Runner' soars high and I think it will continue to do so until I am long gone.

'For you a thousand times over.'
