I had started listening to THE KITE RUNNER on audiobook. **SPOILERS** [View all]




Got thru the second CD, where a boy was raped.

I decided I'm not going to read any further.

I'm going to look for a website that rates books the way movies are rated. Things like that bother me.

Edited to add: Another thing, IMO the protagonist is a real turkey (euphemism). He might be just a kid, but
I still find him impossible to like.
