<p>For my summer reading, I’m allowed to choose what book I want to read from the following list:
The House of the Spirits
One Hundred Years of Solitude
The Sun Also Rises
The Assistant
Song of Solomon
A Thousand Splendid Suns
The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night Time
Mudbound
Sarah’s Key
My Sister’s Keeper
Winds of War</p>
<p>I started reading A Thousand Splendid Suns, but I’m too lazy to continue because the assignment is to summarize each chapter in a paragraph and I don’t want to write 50+ paragraphs. Please give me an opinion on which book I should read.</p>
<p>I’ve read A Thousand Splendid Suns, The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night Time, and My Sister’s Keeper. The third one is the most interesting, in my opinion, but if you’re looking for a <em>short</em> and engaging read, go with The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night Time. It has lots of little drawings in there too.</p>
<p>My Sister’s Keeper is really good - and you should definitely finish A Thousand Splendid Suns, even if it’s not for the assignment. It’s such an amazing book.</p>
<p>I think you should stick with A Thousand Splendid Suns - I loved that book, along with Hosseini’s first book, the Kite Runner. (He also has a new one out now, I can’t think of the name, but I saw it a couple days ago at Barnes and Noble.) A Thousand Splendid Suns picks up a lot of steam towards the middle of the book and is riveting right till the very end. Definitely one of my favorite books.</p>
<p>My Sister’s Keeper is probably the easiest reading and one of the most thought provoking. There was a movie of it a few year’s back but be warned that the movie does not entirely reflect the book.</p>
