The Kite Runner
Our Thoughts
Is there anyone left on the planet who hasn’t read this book? There probably shouldn’t be. It’s not an easy read, as the subject matter hard but so worthwhile. Kite Runner tells the story of two boys growing up in Afghanistan, one of privilege the other, not so much, how they develop a deep friendship that gets shattered with a single act and later, atoned how one atones to the other.
