An absolutely first class read, wanted to know the outcome but didn't want it to end. Bought 1,000 Splendid Suns by the same author at the same time and can't wait start reading.

I bought this book because of the wonderful review by so many people, but what a great disappointment it turned out! The characters are so flat like cut-out paper, the story is predictable, the plot is dull, the language is so poor, it must be some kind of brain-wash side-benefit this brings to the readers, or they would not say things that totally out of place. I tried so hard in three weeks to finish it, on and off, but never passed page 65. And even that was so miserable. You people should go see doctor. And while I am at it, you should read Water for Elephants by Sara Gruen, or The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls. So you will open your eyes, and get an idea of great work of literature! But this is simply a put-down.

The reviews were so glowing I was ready to be disappointed but wasn't. The only problem was that the reviews all give a little of the plot away so, if you read them all, you have a sense of what's going to happen. Just don't read the reviews, trust me, read the first chapter without preconception and then go from there.
This book flows and is composed like a well constructed symphony or painting - all the componets carefully placed in their optimum place for best effect. It is a story that tears at the emotions and lets the pressure build but each time you think events are about to release the build up, they do not. The tale twists and pirouettes beautifully against expectations. Read it and weep!

Knowing almost nothing about Afghanistan, I wasn't sure i would be able to identify with this book. But it really surprised me - I loved it. it is tragic, harrowing and hopeful all at the same time. A story of friendship, love, hurt, betrayal and redemption. The prose is highly evocative, and you can almost taste the streets of Kabul as you read. Definitely highly recommended - I almost didn't want to finish it, because then there would be no more of it to read.

I picked this book up, read a couple of pages and couldnt put it down. A truly moving story of the different lives of two boys. What a fantastic author Khaled Hosseini is, he brings the story alive. I didnt want the book to end.The 2nd best book I have ever read. Caz
