I've added this to my to-read list! I'm trying to move away from my usual type of bok and this might be a good start!

Oh! I actually know about him then... it is all ringing bells. I must definitely add this to my to-read list.

It's part one of a three part series, so I'm looking forward to the next. Tragically the author died from a heart attack in 2004, aged 50

Oh what a coincidence - I saw someone readng that on the train this week and wondered what it was about.

I'm not much of a book reader, guesss when others are reading I'm either on the net blogging or knitting or crocheting.

Thanks so much for your kind words, I do hope you'll come again.

Thank you! I must indeed get back to this.

I hope you don't mind that I used your review of Driving over Lemons on my new Travel Books page (http://journeysandadventures.today.com/travel-books/) under the Spain link. I'll probably be adding a link to Thousand Splendid Suns, too.

I haven't had time to look through the rest of your reviews--if you have more you'd like to include, please let me know!

Those books seems interesting because the auhor writes he saw, think.

Don't get me wrong, I did enjoy the book. I perhaps over-stated my reservations, which didn't really surface until I had to write this review, and the examination threw up points I hadn't considered before. I would happily read more books by Khaled Hosseini. I read The Kite Runner quite a while ago but found it less engaging.

Your thoughts on this book were interesting as I enjoyed this book very much. It is, however, very intense and can be emotionally draining as I found myself connecting to the characters and their experiences, somewhat different from your reaction. He is certainly a talented writer.

2009-01-16T05:24:00.000Z

This is such an impressive idea -- blogging about books that have transported you to some other place. I remember when I was a schoolgrader and I began to enjoy reading, the one thing that stuck in my mind after every book was the experience of having visited a far-away place. My world became bigger.

I read this book in my college World Geography course. It is a truly amazing book - once I started reading it, I wasn't able to put it down. (Even though I had a Chemistry test the next day!)

@Catherine, I suspect we're in the minority though.

@Small World, thanks for the recommendation. I will look for it, because I thought I had a copy. But I may be thinking of The Virgin Blue which I read a while ago.
