Waiting on Wednesday

Waiting on Wednesday is hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine.

This week's pick: And The Mountain Echoed by Khaled Hosseini
Due out: May 21, 2013

Product Description taken from Amazon:
An unforgettable novel about finding a lost piece of yourself in someone else.


Khaled Hosseini, the #1 New York Times–bestselling author of The Kite Runner and A Thousand Splendid Suns, has written a new novel about how we love, how we take care of one another, and how the choices we make resonate through generations. In this tale revolving around not just parents and children but brothers and sisters, cousins and caretakers, Hosseini explores the many ways in which families nurture, wound, betray, honor, and sacrifice for one another; and how often we are surprised by the actions of those closest to us, at the times that matter most. Following its characters and the ramifications of their lives and choices and loves around the globe—from Kabul to Paris to San Francisco to the Greek island of Tinos—the story expands gradually outward, becoming more emotionally complex and powerful with each turning page.

I've heard there are no advance copies of this novel being handed out - which makes the suspense of its arrival that much greater.

I have to admit that I've never read any of this authors previous books - this does sound interesting though. Thanks for the spotlight on it.
