I AGREE WITH ALEAH ON HER OPINION OF THE BOOK.I WAS NEVER INTERESTED IN THE BOOK UNTIL IT GOT TO THE PART WHEN HASSAN WAS RAPED.I FELT SYMPATHY FOR THE FOR AMIR AND IT WAS DISTURBING TO READ,AND TALK ABOUT DURING CLASS DISCUSSION.I WILL SAY SO FAR THE KITE RUNNER IS AN OKAY BOOK. WHEN SHE WROTE HER POST SHE STATED THAT SHE HAD SOME QUESTION FOR THE AUTHOR I ALSO HAVE A LOT OF QUESTION OF MY OWN. IM WONDERING WHAT WAS THE REAL REASON WHY THE HE WROTE THE BOOK. AND LIKE ALEAH SAID IS THE BOOK BASE ON A TRUE STORY. DID HE HAVE A CHILDHOOD LIKE THE RAPING SCENE AND EVERYTHING THAT INSPIRED HIM TO WRITE THE BOOK.


I KIND OF THINK AMIR IS A SPOILED BRAT BUT NOT REALLY. HE MIGHT BE SPOILED BECAUSE HIS FATHER WERE VERY FAMOUS IN THE PLACE THEY STAYED AND LOT OF PEOPLE KNEW HIM SO AMIR THOUGHT HE SHOULD TAKE CONTROL OF IT. BUT HE ALSO NOT SPOILED BECAUSE HIS DAD WAS NOT THAT PRIDE OF HIM. HE COULD NOT STAND UP FOR HIS SELF AND HIS BEHAVIOR WERE LIKE HE WILL NEVER BE THOUGH LIKE HIS DADDY.HE FEEL SAD EVERY TIME HE HEARS HIS DAD TALKING TO ONE OF HIS FRIENDS THAT HE AFRAID THAT HIS SON IS NOT STRONG ENOUGH.

IN THE STORY HE NEED TO STOP THINKING OF WHAT PEOPLE THINK OF HIM BUT WHAT HE THINK OF HIS SELF.
