Half day+ ch 1 & 2

I came to school half today due to my dentist appointment that i had.Today in mr rease class we read chapter one and it was pretty good. It had the narrator(whose name is Amir) talk about a past event that made him into the man that he is today but dosent go into detail saying what said event was. Amir then walks in the street of San Francisco where he lives now and sees a kite that reminds him of his past including his old friend Hassan who was known as the kite runner. Chapter two talks about the backgrounds of Hassan and Amir, Amir was in a wealthy family while Hassan was not, Both of them had no mother as Amir mother died giving birth to him and hassan mother ran off. A soldier claiming to ad slept with hassans mother tells him and tells him his parents are part of a group called Hazara and Amir is part of the Pashtuns and both groups have animosity against each other because Hazara is Shia Muslim and Pashtuns are Sunni Muslim. So far the book is a interesting read knowing both of the characters background.
