here's how I see it: a review of The Kite Runner

The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book is a heartbreakingly haunting tale that I will never forget.  The characters wrap their way around your heart and don't let up as you watch their lives unfold.  I love books that evoke emotion and this one tugged at my heart the whole way through.  I have no idea how I haven't read this one earlier and I am planning on reading A Thousand Splendid Suns right away.  Khaled Hosseini is brilliant in his delivery and beautiful with his prose.  I almost feel a let down after finishing the book because I want to keep going along with the characters on their life journey.  I recommend this book to anyone, as it delves into human emotion, consequences of living with our decisions, complex family dynamics, deep heartbreak and redemption- all things that make people better for having learned about them.  Everyone should read this book.
