Review
Just a Note to say that I have not read the Kite Runner Book yet but I think after reading the graphic novel i will deffiantly be picking up the book in the near future. this was my first Graphic novel of 2014 and I was not dissapointed I loved the drawings and the art work the pictures for me brought the story which is a very powerful one to life. The Kite Runner Story is a story that is powerful and shocking i did have a good old cry at parts and was left shocked and emotional at other parts. The story is a beautiful story of friendship and it deals with that in such a lovely way as well as dealing with how race and religion can affect people and that by the end of the graphic novel the ending is such a satisfying ending and one that gave me a little flutter of joy in my heart. After reading the Kite Runner it does make you think of current issues that is still going on and thats what I like about books like this it does shock and it does make you think about society today and how it affects all of us. For the Kite runner gets 5/5 stars for the story and the plot and also for the stunning art work that has brought it to life. I look forward to reading the book in the future. i gave this novel 5/5 stars I would like to point out this books is for older readers and has graphic and adult themes running throughout.
