And the Mountains Echoed 

by Khaled Hosseini


I wish I had better things to say about this book. Khaled Hosseini, author of The Kite Runner and A Thousand Splendid Suns, writes this newest novel And the Mountains Echoed. This is a story of how love and our choices we make can affect people for generations. It starts out with the story of Abdullah and Pari, 2 motherless siblings who are inseparable. Abdullah acts as a a mother and father for Pari more than anyone else and so they create this extremely special and close bond. What happens to them will change their lives and other's for generations to come.

Having read Hosseini's other two books, I had very high expectations for this book. If you haven't read them, I would very highly recommend you to. They are emotional, moving, and phenomenally written books. When I started out reading his newest book it started out okay even pretty good. I could see how this might be another tear jerker. Unfortunately I soon found myself waiting and wondering when this book would start to make more sense. Each chapter follows a different character, but also changes the timeline. At every new chapter I found myself trying to figure out who this new character was in relation to the characters I had already met and also what is going on in this new timeline. I wish it had followed more of a straight forward timeline and had given more of a chance for characters to develop. I never felt like I got into the emotions of the book.

Overall I would not recommend this for the average reader. I would say that if you have read Hosseini's previous books, it might be interesting to give it a chance to compare. Let me know if you have read this new book or his older ones. Tell me if you agree that it was a little bit of a let down.
