taliaissmart 's review for:

A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini
3.0

*RECOMMENDED BY FAITH MOAVENZADEH

This book packs a real punch. The language is lovely and affecting at times. I felt like the timeline was too drawn out, though. I think the events would have felt more visceral had they been singular, but maybe the exhaustive nature of continual grief is the point. I didn't necessarily enjoy this book, but I think it's incredibly important.
