A thousand splendid suns
"A Thousand Splendid Suns" by Khaled Hosseini is a captivating tale that takes readers on a journey through the eyes of two Afghan women, Mariam and Laila, and their intertwining lives. This book is truly remarkable because it takes us on an emotional journey. We feel a range of emotions while reading about Mariam and Laila's stories, witnessing the strength of the human spirit and the power of sacrifice. Hosseini's descriptions of Afghanistan are also amazing, as we are transported to the country and can understand its landscape, culture, and societal norms. This helps us gain a better understanding of life in a war-torn country. Moreover, the book also highlights the troubled history of Afghanistan and shows the harsh realities faced by its people. It explores themes such as gender inequality, oppression, and the devastating impact of war on innocent lives. Hosseini's storytelling not only entertains but also educates, giving us a deeper understanding of the country and its people. In conclusion, "A Thousand Splendid Suns" is a powerful and emotionally moving novel that tells the story of two women's struggles and their enduring strength. It sheds light on the harsh realities of life in Afghanistan and the resilience of the human spirit. This book is a must-read for anyone seeking a moving, thought-provoking, and unforgettable novel.

Remember that the challenges you face are not obstacles, but stepping stones. Every setback is a lesson, every difficulty a chance to grow stronger. Trust in your resilience, for within you is the power to overcome, learn, and evolve. You are not just walking through life, you are shaping it.✨️

In the past, thoughts of her brought joyful cheer A heart that was full, with love that was clear But now, memories of her bring only sorrow's sway A heart that once loved, now weeps every day

We search for solace, in another's gentle hand, For wounds that we cannot heal, on our own broken land We yearn for someone's love, to mend our shattered past, To heal the hurts that we cannot, and make our hearts whole at last

Don't stir the embers, of a heart it's already aflame If love is what you offer, give it truly, don't play games Don't do me a favor, with a love that's incomplete If you want to love me, do it with a heart that's unique

Why would anyone wait, or waste their precious time? Are we special to anyone, or just a fleeting rhyme? Do we leave a lasting mark, or are we easily forgot? The questions haunt, as I wonder, what am I worth?

They say "be strong", with a voice that's loud and clear But depression's whispers, can bring even the strongest to fear It creeps in with the shadows, and steals the light of day And the weight of its darkness, can be hard to find a way

Debating whether or not to finish this book...(a mini yap)
I'm a little over halfway through this book and I am debating whether or not to finish it. I haven't read in days because this is the book that opens in my Kindle. Solidly sitting at 1/5⭐️, this book is boring. The fmc is impossible to sympathize with and nothing really happens. She spends the... read more

A weight that's carried with a steady hand May still be crushing, beneath the surface grand A burden wished upon, or a curse that's told A heart that's heavy, with a weight that's hard to hold

Another circumstance tormented me then: that no one was like me and I was like no one. “I am alone, and they are all together,” I thought and pondered.

I once wondered why hearts burn with fiery rage Why love can turn to anger, and a soul's dark cage But now I understand, for I've walked that same flame And felt the fury that fuels, the heart's deepest pain

Is this what they mean by "being in love with books"?
A lot of people here or on any other social app say that they love books and that it's their life. Here, is a depiction of relating their "boon addiction" to other forms of satisfaction
