I finished reading The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini today (I’m quite possibly the last person in New York to read this book, judging by how many people I saw reading it on the subway over the summer).
It was a very good book, although also very sad and moving. It also had one of the best endings I’ve read for a long time — not good in the “happily ever after” sense, but just well-written and satisfying. I dislike stories that just stop.
Anyway, here’s the filthy lucre link — click on this, buy it from Amazon, and I’ll make 5 cents or something.
