About this title: With heart-wrenching power and suspense, the bestselling author of "The Kite Runner" shows how a woman's love for her family can move her to shocking and heroic acts of self-sacrifice, and that in the end it is love, or even the memory of love, that is often the key to survival.

"As USA Today stated in their review the Story "makes our hearts ache, our stomachs clench, and our emotions reel". If you enjoyed his first book, you will certainly enjoy this book, The author lived is Afghanistan as this makes the story more interisting since he has been there, done that. I feel it is a good time to read this book with the unrest or war is going on at this time."
"A surprising look into the lives of the women of Afghanistan. The contrast in their culture and ours leaves one wondering how we would fare under similar conditions.
This title is very well written as was its predecessor ,The Kite Runner. Recommended."
"Khaled Hosseini is an amazing writer. He is able to take difficult topics and keep the reader completely engulfed. His writings give a glimpse of a lifestyle few of us can comprehend. Once you start reading, it is difficult to put down until you have ready every last page."
"I enjoyed it because I had read and enjoyed the Kite Runner. It gave me a new insight of the situations with people living in Afghanistan and how happy I am to have born in America is spite of it's problems. I hope he writes another book.
My husband is currently reading and enjoying the book"
