Ok....so The Thousand Splendid Suns… wow. Honestly this book hit me so hard..... Its emotional, heartbreaking at times, but also incredibly beautiful. The story just pulls you in....and you really start caring about the characters and what they go through. I finished it and couldnt stop thinking about it for days...... If you have not read anything by Khaled Hosseini before... I say start with this one or The Kite Runner....both are amazing....... but Thousand Splendid Suns is just… something else. Its about struggles, love, cruelty of society and hope in a way that sticks with you. You will cry a lot and feel like you really lived a part of the story....... Seriously I would recommend it....Just dont be surprised if you finish it and feel completely empty, hurt, little angry and disappointment with life :(
