Average rating - 4.5 out of 5

Rating: 5 of out 5 - A real classic

I liked KiteRunner but was not overwhelmed by it. When my wife bought me A Thousand Splendid Suns, I thought it was going to be more of the same. I have to say I was mistaken. I found the whole story very believable and incredibly sad. You really feel for the two characters and the ending really brings a tear to your eyes. It is one of the best written and saddest stories I have read in a long time. I enjoyed it even more than The Book Thief and thats saying something.

Rating: 5 of out 5 - Well Recommended!

Fantastic read..and for those of you who enjoyed reading 'The Kite Runner', I'm sure you'll love this too!

Rating: 5 of out 5 - Fave book of 2008

couldn't put this book down, absolutely superb story telling by khaled hosseini once again.
you will not be disappointed- buy buy buy

Rating: 5 of out 5 - My best read for 2009

At first I decided against reading this book, although it had good reviews I didn't think it was for me. How wrong was I. When a friend offered to lend it to me I thought I'd give it a go. When I had finished it I bought it on Amazon for a very good friend as a Christmas gift. It is very well written, what I call a page turner with a strong story line that just makes you want to carry on reading it. It is a story that will stay with you for a long time, what a talented writer Khaled Hosseini is, so much so I went straight on to buy The Kite Runner.If you are not sure, as I was, don't miss this fabulous read.

Rating: 5 of out 5 - Couldn't put it down.

With 2 small children to look after, finding the time to read is a rarity, this book however caught me snatching even seconds whenever I could possibly find it. I think it is the most memorable for me from the whole decade.
I was moved to tears, horrified, thoroughly engaged with the characters, entertained and also I like to think I have learnt a bit about Afghanistan and its troubles.
Hosseini is a quite wonderful writer.
