The Kite Runner

Tear jerker, add it to your reading list. A must read.

Of course this book is on the list! It's a really great and moving book about a rich Afghani boy and his poor friend. The book is full of really moving and sometimes shocking scenes that will make you somewhat addicted to the story - and rightly so. It's such a great story that there's a movie too!

O romance narra a tocante história da amizade entre Amir e Hassan, dois meninos que vivem no Afeganistão da década de 1970. Durante um campeonato de pipas, Amir perde a chance de defender Hassan, num episódio que marca a vida dos dois amigos para sempre. Vinte anos mais tarde, eles se reencontram.
