This past week I finished reading A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini. I cannot say enough about this book. I sobbed for about an hour after reading the last page.....it makes the reader look at what he thinks is "disappointing" or "complicated" about his life and compare it to characters whose lives are constantly impacted by war, fear, hunger, etc. Even though it is a work of fiction, it is remarkably realistic and believable. I told Joe (through my sobs and his eye rolls) that I don't think I will ever be the same after finishing that story. It made me look at my life and truly appreciate all that I have.
Meanwhile, I started reading "Tales of a Drama Queen" because I needed a "light" read. Hehe!!
