Tegan | 3 comments I've always meant to read this book but never actually got round to it although I've had the film for years I've never actually watched it so I feel I should read the book first.

Courtney | 1 comments I read this book years ago and it remains one of my favorite books. There were times that I had to set the book down and step away from it because it was too emotionally charged. That's not a complaint, it is one of the highest compliments I can give a book. I am very impressed by how well Khaled Hosseini describes the culture as well as daily life in Kabul.

It's a truly brilliant book certainly one to read, I still haven't yet watched the film but the book has definitely become one of my favorites; I couldn't put it down. Although it is quite sad (which isn't a criticism) it's a very interesting and moving read which I would really recommend.
