I was also disappointed by Interpretation of Murder.

The Kite Runner is v good - but not at all enjoyable.

I was very disappointed by Interpretation Of Murder.

Never heard of the third.

The Kite Runner is excellent, but I think Interpretation of Murder will suit you better - haven't read the other book.

Oooh, im not really up for weepy - the last book i read touched on the war in Afghanistan and it made me angry

. Maybe save that one for another time.

Maybe some murder detective lite is about right for now.

I loved the Kite Runner. It is a bit of a weepy but also uplifting (if you see what I mean). It is now one of my all time favourite books.

Haven't read the others I'm afraid.

Interpretation of Murder is a bit murder detective lite. I loved it but then my idea of a relax is to read Agatha Christie, don't know the others, but have heard Kite Runner is a weepy.

kite runner is a tragic story - not v meaty - has had great reviews. LIked it better than 1000 Splendid Suns (same author)

don't know the other books sorry

So "Look at [[www.mumsnet.com this page]]", would display "Look at this page".
