As was the case for other Khaled Hosseini fans, I was nervous to read this because I loved his first two books and I didn't know if he could pull it off a third time. Well have no fear - this book is just as hard to put down as the others!
He is such a master at weaving story lines together and connecting the characters with differing but equally engaging tales. Every story is connected to a fictional village named Shadbagh in Afghanistan. The 1st chapter begins in the fall of 1952 and the last chapter in the winter of 2010. In that span of nearly 60 years you will meet many people and revisit some in various stages of their lives - sometimes as told as a part of another person's tale.
This book is never slow and always hard to find a stopping point, but it is truly one of my newest favorites. Enjoy!
