just finished this book called the kite runner by khaled hosseini the story is based in the 1980s in afghanistan where there was some racial discrimination between two subgroups of the muslim community.it talks abt how this boy had a hazara(the racial group which was looked down) servant as best friend and how this servant was loyal to his master.it revolves around how the 'master' betrayed his friend just so that he would be loved by his father.when the 'master' grew up,he went back to search for his hazara friend as he felt guilty abt his cowardice when young....

my book review doesnt sound really amazing abt this story but it's definitely a book worth reading.there are parts in this story where u would really feel like u are part of the story.its really touching and i guess it somehow reflects the life of people living in poverty and war.somehow it brings out the humanity of human too..and it dawned on me how the person u might regard as ur best friend may just betray u one day and leave u alone in times of help.

oh yea..gotta thank sze yee for recommending this book to me and hope u guys will this book some day too!! =)
