wow that was quite the read! For the most part the story is pretty heartbreaking and heart wrenching Loyalty, family/bloodlines, pride and redemption play a heavy role throughout the book. What happened that day during the kite running contest helped changed the lives of Hassan and Amir forever. Should Amir have spoken up to someone about what happened or stepped in? Well that is a hard question to answer given that he was also a scared young boy who has never had to step up to the plate before. Maybe he should have but then we would never had seen him attempt to redeem himself for the rest of his life. While it was an interesting read, there was just too many coincidences to keep the story going The last section, where Amir travels back to his country to meet with his former mentor, it gets a little too fantastical. Like really he can just waltz into the country like that, run into friendly and helpful people and presume he can just take the kid and leave the country safely?!
