a way to be good again

so, i read The Kite Runner this week and it was incredible. (the title of this post is from the book.) i mean, seriously it's a fantastic book. the writing is fantastic, and the story is gut-wrenching. i don't mind telling you that i wept openly on the subway while reading this book. so, read it. i'm serious. even if you weren't such a big fan of one hundred years of solitude (bogdan!), you will really dig this book.
