The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini is one of the best books I’ve ever read. It tells the story of two boys who grew up in Kubal, practically under the same roof. Amir is the son of a wealthy and respected merchant, and Hassan is the son of Amir’s father’s servant. When the two are alone they are like brothers, but in the presence of others they are servant and master. Hassan is loyal to Amir. He will do anything Amir asks him to, no matter what the cost, whether it be his life or his dignity. Hassan will protect Amir, but Amir will not protect Hassan. One day, when Amir is given the chance to protect Hassan, he fails horribly and runs away in fear, and acts like it never happened. That day will drive a rift between the two that will never heal.
I would recommend that anyone read this book. This book is hard to explain in words, but if do you read it, it will be on your mind for days
