Outside Reading: Quarter #3

For my outside reading book this quarter I chose to read The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini. I've heard this is a classic read and very engaging so I'm excited to get started. I haven't read yet, but from what I've heard it describes the story of a man who faces his country's revolution and invasion by Russian forces. It shows the struggle to overcome suppression of government or in a country. At first, my family recommended the novel to me but I also figured it would be interesting based on all of the publicity it was given. Based on all the talk on TV, in magazines, or just my peers, I hope the story will fill my expectations.
