Hi guys !!
I recently finished A THOUSAND SPLENDID SUNS by KHALED HOSSEINI . Well it's heart clenching tale of two girls MARIAM and LAILA from different backgrounds, different backstory , but joined through their wounds and pain that they have endured through their husband named RASHEED a cruel hypocrite with no heart.
Based on a war background it also shows the grim reality of what a war can do a beautiful country and how it can turn happily living families into refugees wandering for shelter.
Khaled is a impressive story teller . He weaves different themes like love ,family,betrayal,pain,endurance and many more such vividness in one tale.
If you have read this book leave a reply and tell your opinion about it.
HAPPY READING....

A Thousand Splendid Suns was an impacting and lasting read for me - a sublime story packed with horrors of war. The characters are very real and induce a gamut of real emotions-hatred, compassion, satisfaction, grief and a whirlwind containing a mighty wallop of gloomy incidents. It says much about Afghanistan and it's culture. This is the thing about books, they make you a part of their world. Immerse you in themselves as if you were born there. Mariam and Laila lead a very challenging life in Afghanistan as women. Upon that arduous task, they are also encumbered with war.
I hate wars and all things related to it. Many human lives are lost-lives which were otherwise full of potential. Khaled Hosseini captures this sentiment very warmly. It is a novel I deem necessary to be read by all to make this planet a better place.
A reasonably peaceful place.
