The Kite Runner blog post 1

        My independent novel which I'm reading is called The Kite Runner. It is a really good book, with many great features that make it stand out. However, there is something that cannot be matched. That would be its imagery. The best thing about The Kite Runner is its imagery. The Kite Runner takes place in Afghanistan, and it seems so realistic. The reason I say this is because it uses such descriptive words that it makes the reader actually feel like their in the novel. The author does its best to capture images and store them in the reader's minds. In the book, hope and despair is a common, reoccurring theme in Afghanistan. The author even combines diction and imagery to really portray where the action is taking place. While I read it, I understood it a lot better because of its imagery. This is why imagery is the best feature of The Kite Runner.

        The Kite Runner is about a man from Kabul, Afghanistan when it was in its golden period. Western movies, theme parks, and lavish culture made Kabul a standout. The man lived a wealthy lifestyle when he was a young kid, and he is on the search for redemption for an incident that happened many years ago. As he sets on his journey, numerous setbacks and problems occur. They will change his life forever, and he will have to do some of the most courageous things for the redemption.

        So far, I am enjoying The Kite Runner. It is a very good novel and extremely interesting. It has a great plot that I guarantee will draw you in as a reader. The author uses many literary techniques to make it sound authentic and fun to read. So far the tone is guilt, and remorse from a past action that I cannot say, as it may spoil some of the upcoming events coming forward in the novel. I'm getting very hooked as a reader, and I feel like the plot is getting more intense and bigger, more dramatic things will happen. I recommend it to anyone, although it has some language and violent content.
