i’m studying this book as part of my english analysis coursework and so far, i am enthralled with the book. it offers a raw, real and heartbreaking insight into amir’s childhood and adulthood. it’s especially difficult to read with traumatic scenes involving hassan, especially as he is consistently antagonised for his features. i’m intrigued to see where the book leads next…

it’s my birthday🤗🎉🖤 fingers crossed i get gifted some books🤞🏼📚😎
