I'm already hooked!
Oh, man! This one had me from the first 3 sentences!
I like how the book is primarily Amir's story, but the rest of his family all contribute to and influence it. It's also clear from this excerpt that his family members also have their own lives to worry about (i.e.: Roya's job at the school & her faith; Soraya's friends, love of books, and her pain at being left behind; Afshin's mysterious past incident with airport security).
