How's Your Novel Going?

Discuss your novel you are reading in class. Are you liking it? Hating it?

Would you consider this "good literature"? Why or why not? What would make it better?

I hate this book. it's boring, there's nothing exciting or adventurous. It's a typical book. They never hold my interest.

I finished reading the book.At first i didn't like this book but towards the end i found rather enjoyable. Learning that Hassan and Amir are brother is shocking, but the it kind of ties things together.Makes you understand his relationship to his father.He put all that pressure on Amir because of his own guilty conscience.I did overall liked the book,but I wouldn't recommend it for most people.

the kite runner is an alright book, but its not the greatest. it could be worse and all...but i personally dont think i would ever recommend it to anyone.

I liked the second half better than the first, but ultimately it's an unsatisfying story. Amir didn't care one ounce about Hassan or his poor son until he found out they were brothers. By seeking nothing but his own redemption, he cements his flaw of a life.

I dearly, dearly love Hassan.

i think that the novel is interesting, it has its boring parts just as all novels do but there are chapters where i just can't put it down which i find ironic because when it was announced that we were going to read this book i thought it was going to be lame but i was totally wrong! the only thing that bothers me about it is that the chapters are really long, it would be easier to read if it was more broken up.

The book is alright I am on chapter 15. It is not my favorite book but it isn't the worst.

My weekend was totally stressful. I just recieved my late biological father's autopsy report from the military, and that made my weekend messed up. I didn't know him barely because he ditched me and my mom for his career, but it just left me with alot of unanswered questions. I didn't have time to read.

Horrible book, fiction is a waste of time. You'll read about a person who never existed who did stuff that never happened and is completely irrevealnt to real life.

i like this book because its kind of intense.
its good literature because it makes you think but thats also what bothers me.
although i read alot im not good at "seeing whats not there" so i like books that just tell it like it is, but i do enjoy this one.
