The Kite Runner made its remarkable bloom on 2003 written by Khaled Hosseini. Khaled Hosseini is an Afghan-American author and physician.

The story circulates between the childhood friendship of Amir and Hassan. Its setting is based on pre-war Aghanistan to modern day US.

Hosseini is excellent in his descriptions as it makes you feel like it's real and you're in the situation itself.

However, this novel was banned in US (high schools) for a time because of its sexual explicit content, offensive language and violence.

I must say, this is a masterpiece as it talks about racial injustice, friendship, loyalty, betrayal, guilt, regret and redemption.

Notable dialogues of the book:

"For you, a thousand times"-Hassan

"There is a way to be good again" - Rahim

"There is only one sin, only one. And that is theft. Every other sin is a variation of theft... When you kill a man, you steal a life. You steal his wife's right to a husband, rob his children of a father. When you tell a lie, you steal someone's right to the truth. When you cheat, you steal the right to fairness" - Baba/Amir's father

Rating: 5/5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

P.S: There is also a film adaptation of this book

I wonder where exactly is your book review. After I read the text I still know nothing more than when I read the cover of the book. If you - at school - would write a review like this you wouldn't pass your exam. It's not even clear if you read the book yourself. Disappointing.

It is because I tried not to give spoilers of it. Is it too vague? What's missing by the way? So I can take note of that ☺️

If you give a book review you tell about the storyline, the (main) characters, the plot, a hot about the author and of course your own opinion. It's not said because some critics say so a book is good or makes a good or easy read for everyone. You can search for really good book reviews on the internet. For sure you can find them because each student has to read them and learn how to write them. I know - at least in my country - you can even find them with the note given by the teacher. Interesting aspect about reading them can be if you agree. If it comes to older books you even might notice a difference if it comes to the opinion of the reader.

Didn't I give those details on the article? I wrote it as short as possible because if it's a long read, the audience might get bored.

I just found it here on this link. But I think it's a shorter version of what I have read (book itself), the words are not the same as it was.
