I cried like 3 times while reading the Kite Runner. Holy Samoly.
There's a local stink here recently about the book, because some uber-Christian watchdog parents at a local high school refused to let their freshmen kids read it. I'm honestly not sure how I would react myself. I HATE the idea of censorship, and it is a completely EXCELLENT book, but there are passages that are, difficult and creepy in the extreme. I really balk at allying myself in any fashion with the censorship parents, but I think that I think that it would be a better book for seniors. Hm.
