Good book to read

I recently read author Khaled Hosseini's 2nd novel, "A Thousand Splendid Suns" and liked it even better than his first "The Kite Runner" ( which has been made into a movie and will be released Nov 2, 2007). Like The Kite Runner, this novel was also set in Afghanistan. But the 2nd novel centers on 2 women and the bond they formed to sustain them through their suffering.

You get so involved with Hosseini's characters and really care for them. It's hard to put his books down. These two books are on audio tapes with Hosseini reading "The Kite Runner". A lady reads the 2nd novel, and she is in the Kite Runner movie. I can't wait to see the movie.

I try to read a book a week. This week-end I read "Chicken Soup for a Mother's Soul" - a quick little book with lots of wisdom and advice and humor of course.
