A Thousand Splendid Suns.

I have been currently reading a book called A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini. He has been the author of the hit book, The Kite Runner, which was a New York Times Bestseller.

The book starts off with Mariam, a small girl from a poor village in 50's based Afghanistan. She was born out of wedlock, with her father as one of the richest men. As life passes on, and her mother commiting suicide, she is forced into an arranged mairrage at 15. Later on, as she becomes much older, she meets a new girl, Laila. Laila is Rasheed's second wife. Rasheed is Mariam's husband.

Mariam and Laila have a bond that sisters cannot even have.

Hope you read this book!
