I really enjoyed reading this book , it is a beautiful sad story about two women you will cry after seeing Rasheed's brutal behaviour , i really really loved the ending the letter , Aziza thinking of Mariam by reciting Quran verses Laila feeling her she's close to them that's so beautiful . Mariam deserved so much better . I never thought I could actually ever going to hate fictional characters but yes I have a lot of hate in my heart for rasheed and assef (The kite runner) . I have read all 3 books from Khaled Hosseini and I can just say this one is my favourite book .
