This is a bit of a weird one for me…

 
Have you ever come across a book, a really good book that you had to put down and take a break from because, although brilliantly written, some of the scenes you read were so harrowing that you have to just walk away from the read for a little while?

Some of you may already know that I am currently reading “The Kite Runner” by Khaled Hosseini (click on pic for blurb).

For me, “The Kite Runner” is such a book. I am yet to finish it and I am wondering how I am going to approach its review when the time comes.

I feel so strange about this because I did not think anything could top “An Untamed State” by Roxane Gay which I recently read too and was also a great but harrowing piece and you can read my thoughts on it right here.

“The Kite Runner” is making me feel a somewhat different kind of discomfort.

So, what’s your “Love it but Hate it” read?
