Has anyone here read Khaled Husseini’s ‘And the Mountains Echoed’ ? I started reading it a long time back, and maybe it’s because I haven’t had proper time for it, but I just can’t get myself to like it.
I’ve read ‘Kite Runner’ before, and it was a pretty good book, where the story moved in a relaxed way. I expected the writing to be similar, and although Husseini uses similar ways to invoke emotion, something about the book makes it hard to like and get ‘addicted’ to. I’m more than halfway through, but this book just seems so dramatic, despite having a pretty good plot.
If someone wants to read it, I’d honestly suggest not having very high expectations. Just think of it as a simple book, and get through it.
