Kite Runner
I completed my read in 8 hours.
Record breaking!
The story is so captivating that I couldn’t put the book down. Yes, it was one of those Saturdays. And I weeped shamelessly while reading.
It is really heart wrenching and the story is so well written. I could feel every pain, shame, love, loyalty, sacrifies and significance in each and every word.
The story goes about a boy who grew up running away from a terrible secret, from people he loves. Returning years later, only to understand everything about his life and have a final chance to make things right.
Its one of the books selected for reading in the book club I joined here. Well, many book club meetings after (where I was only at the very first one!), I am trying now to catch up on the readings.
Besides, I’ve just returned from New York. So I took the opportunity when I was there to grab many many books because 1. English Books everywhere 2. Weak USD (Hehehe)
But I just realised Amazon is a better bargain. Damn!
