book review!!!

This book Isn’t like most books out there,it’s very unique and original.
I have read numerous books that contained some of the same plots or experiences said in The Kite Runner but none were blended in like in this one.This book talks about actual life in Afghanistan but also speaks about his personal experiences and contains flashbacks.This book seemed boring at first,but now that I have read some of it I have gotten hooked.With other books,the thing that catches my eye is the title or when i skim through it,it gives me a good overall impression that makes me want to read it immediately.You can’t necessarily tell what this book is actually about just from reading the title.It doesn’t give hints.
Honestly,I would have never chosen this book if I saw it randomly on a book shelf,but now that I know more about it,I’m hooked.No book that I have seen so far incorporates the same things he did.The saying don’t judge a book by it’s cover is included in here.
The reality of this book hits me harder than most books.It’s sad reading about this because there friendship is dying and Hassan has to endure a lot of pain just for his friend that he loves.Most books contain common things like you fight with your friend over something small or over boy etc.This book actually gives me the sense that I’m there and I am a character in there too.When I read this book,it brings a lot of emotions out of me like anger,sadness,nothing happy so far.I can’t actually connect to this because my losses of friends are nothing compared to this one. My overall opinion of this book is outstanding and intense.Now that I have read this book,I will try my best to picking out plenty more,no matter how boring the title is.I encourage others to read this book and actually have an open-mind to be able to feel the emotion.
This book is one in a million. :)
