Last Blog, better get full credit... Please.

Well, the blog is over. This is the last one. I must have a television advertisement, so here we go:

Do you like to read? Do you like adventures? Do you hate to read? Do you enjoy travelling? Do you like anything? If you answered yes to any of these questions, then A Thousand Splendid Suns is right for you. This is the second novel written by Khaled Housseini, the best selling Afghan American author. The first novel was an immediate New York Times best seller, and this novel is on the charts as well. The story tells the tale of a young woman in Afghanistan during the Russian takeover whom is a bastard child. She receives plenty of prejudice and discrimination from everyone around her, even he own biological father. She escapes Afghanistan to be I America and she continues to face hardship.

This novel is an easy read of around 300 pages and you will not want to put it down. Just like Housseini’s The Kite Runner, A Thousand Splendid Suns is action packed from start to finish. This novel is truly a roller coaster ride that doesn’t stop. You will find yourself sweating, crying, laughing, and hurting with the characters of the novel. It is heart wrenching as well as comical at parts, but remains very serious throughout.

This book is sold everywhere, and if you tell the cashier you know the author personally, you can pick up the book for free! But this can only be done if you have a registered place of birth on the same street as Housseini or have a family tree that stems to at least a fourth cousin of Housseini. Nothing in life is free, which is what my mother has always said.

(This commercial will open with people reading, getting involved in adventures, and travelling, and then an √ going across the screen. Then some random guy in a sport coat and tie is going to come on screen and read from the script. He is going to look a little awkward, but he will also be confident. He will be a paradox in that way and he will look good. During the part about the layout of the book, he will be sitting in a comfy chair, satin, wearing a robe now by a fireplace, holding the book and shaking it around as he talks and sips tea and eats cheese cubes. But then when they go to the part about where it is sold, he will be back in his sporty, classy attire and he will be I front of a Barnes and Noble, Half Price Books, Borders, target, etc. Literally everywhere. There will be a store rolodex showing everyplace to go. Then, when he gets to the disclaimer, the man will talk so fast that no one can Actually hear what he has to say, so they all assume they can get it for free and then go get one, pay for it… Hug Profit. Then a shot will show a bunch of children reading the novel in a beautiful garden as the title of the book flashes across the screen….)

Fin.

Drew Harris is forever my hero. Forever and ever.
