Last Book Response To The Kite Runner .

After I finished the book, I did not like the ending. And also I dislike the last section of this book. I also found out that Amir reflected back a lot on his life with Hassan; the old times. There are two reasons why I don’t like the last section of this book, and the ending of the book.


One reason why I didn’t like the last section of the book was because during the middle or near the end of the book it talked about Assef. I did not like how it talked about Assef, because it brought back many sad memories. And during when Amir was meeting with Assef, they had a fight. A fight to determine who is going to win; if Amir wins he can take Sohrab, if he does not win then that means Assef hurt him so badly that he could of died or injured badly. But luckily, Amir won, it was because of Sohrab. During the most intense moment of the fight, when Amir got really injured and bloody, Sohrab pleased Assef to stop. Assef did not listen so Sohrab used a slingshot and shot into Assef’s eye. This was similar to what happened years back, when Amir and Hassan were at the hills, Assef was going to punch Amir, but Hassan took out his sling shot and positioned it on Assef’s eye. And last Amir escaped Assef’s punch, it was all because of Hassan. And now it was because of Hassan’s son, Sohrab that able him to leave the door, without being dead.

Another reason why I didn’t like the last section was because it was sad. It was sad how  Sohrab did not talk much through out his time with Amir. But finally when their relationships got better, Sohrab started to talk more to Amir. Then, all the sudden Amir confessed to Sohrab that he might need to stay at some places; the orphanage, while trying to get him to come to America. Later, they stopped talking, because Sohrab got upset, and really did not want to go to live in an orphanage. After that, a week or a few weeks after, Amir received a call from Soraya. She told him that Sohrab will be able to come to the U.S. But when Amir was going to tell him the good news,  he found in the tub, and knew that Sohrab  used a blade and cut his wrists, causing him to lose a lot of blood, and to almost die. Sohrab did such thing was because he really did not want to go to the orphanage. Luckily he is still alive, and made it to America.

The ending was boring, though it reflected back on how Hassan was toward Amir, now when Amir and Sohrab are in America, he did the same thing Hassan did to Amir; run after the kite for him. And in the ending, Amir said to Sohrab that he would run it for him.
