The Kite Runner

Cover of The Kite Runner

By Khaled Hosseini

Price Unknown (bought by mom from US)

One of the most touching book of all times! Couldn't hold back my tears at the end; the emotions of the characters are depicted in such a raw & honest way that you can't help feeling the same for them :)

The Story:
Amir and Hassan have been friends since childhood; they are practically inseparable, but the fact that Hassan is Amir's servant's son deprives him of the respect that every human deserves. Finally when a time of hardship came, Amir & Hassan are thrown in a difficult situation, where Amir makes a choice that changes their lives forever.

Afterthought:
Read it read it read it! This book brings topics like love, honesty, guilt & redemption to the readers. It was damn touching! My favourite quote was "For you, a thousand times over."

I'd give it a: 4.9/5.0

If you liked this book, try: Memoirs of a Geisha
