I’ve wanted to read this book for so long and my sister and fellow blogger ChrissiReads gave it to me as a present for Christmas. Thank you Chrissi! I’m currently doing a “Real Book” challenge on my blog for August and this is one of them.
What did you recently finish reading?:
Again, another book I’ve been meaning to read for so long as I’ve really enjoyed the authors other two books. This book absolutely blew me away and I urge everyone to read it, read it!
What do you think you’ll read next?
This book is part of my new Banned Books feature that I participate in with fellow bloggers Chrissi Reads and Luna’s Little Library. This is our August read and was chosen by Luna! Very intrigued to start it.

I really liked The Kite Runner. I’ve seen the film Battle Royale but not read the book. I keep meaning to! Thanks for visiting my blog.
You’re welcome! Thanks for the return visit. I’ve seen the film too, the book is really good so far.
Everyone seems to be reading Battle Royale at the moment, with very mixed reviews. I’ve wanted to read for years too, ever since I saw the film. I’m worried it won’t live up to it though – I thought the film was amazing! Can’t wait to see what you thought!
I know, I saw the film too and really enjoyed it! I’m just over 100 pages in though and it’s very good so far. 🙂
Glad you’re enjoying Battle Royale! Yay for you finally reading The Kite Runner! 🙂
I know, you were on at me to read that for ages! Glad I did though and soooo glad I’m reading Battle Royale. 🙂
I loved the Kite Runner, so well written, but a bit too emotional for me, so I have not yet tried his latest
You’re right it was very emotional. I felt like I just had to sit quietly for a while after I read it to take it all in! I really recommend A Thousand Splendid Suns, it’s fantastic too. 🙂
I read Kite Runner several years ago and loved it, even though parts of it were so disturbing. Really great writing . . .
Definitely disturbing at some points which I wasn’t expecting. You’re right, the writing is fantastic!
Glad you enjoyed Kite Runner, I thought this book was an amazing read and one that I would like to revisit in the not too distant future. Thanks for visiting my WWW http://cleopatralovesbooks.wordpress.com/2014/08/13/www-wednesday-august-13/
I agree Cleo, can’t believe it took so long for me to get to it!
I’m glad you enjoyed ‘The Kite Runner.’ It’s such a great story. I hope you enjoy ‘Battle Royal,’ I’ve heard good things!

Thanks Sam I loved it and feeling the same way about Battle Royale at the moment!
I need to read the Kite Runner. It has been on my TBR shelf for so long now that I just need to get er done.
You should Emma it’s really great! 🙂
I’d love to read The Kite Runner one of these days. I’ve heard nothing but great things about it.
You should it’s a really great but very emotional read! 🙂
The Kite Runner is on my TBR list! I hope you enjoy it. Thanks for stopping by my WWW
It was awesome Leslie, I highly recommend it!
I haven’t heard of any of these books, though the last one sounds hilarious. I hope you enjoy it.
Thanks for visiting The Book Connection.
Thank you for the return visit! 🙂
I was also blown away by The Kite Runner. I have to admit, it was not a book I would have picked up on my own. I read it for one of my book clubs. I am so glad someone picked it because I would have missed out on a great one! Happy reading!
