Which characters change as the story proceeds? Do they change for the better or the worse, and how do they change specifically?
Well the main character that definitely change in the story and for good was Amir. Amir felt so guilty for what he did to Hassan how he treated him and didn't care for his feelings. How he didn't care that Hassan was a really loyal friend to him. Anyway, Amir change in a good way because after Sohrab's parents (Hassan & Farzana) were killed in Kabul, Sohrab was sent to an orphanage and Amir with the help of Rahim Kahn and the taxi driver he rescued Sohrab from Assef , the bully that raped Hassan when they were little, and decided to take him to America with him and his wife.

Who was your favorite character and why? Which character did you dislike most throughout the story and why?
My favorite character now after reading the whole book and watching the movie was Amir, because even though all the drama he put Hassan through he still had love for him. It was really brave of him to go back to Kabul and rescue his nephew. Amir knew what he was going to go through and even though at first he had a doubt of not going he still did and I'm pretty sure he is never going to regret it. The character I most dislike was Assef because he was just a pig, how could he had rapped Hassan and even after he had marked Hassan for the rest of his life he used his son Sohrab as a prostitute and marked him too, ugh I just hate him.

Which is your most favorite scene in the book? In the movie?
My most favorite scene was when Amir and Sohrab are flying the kite and at the end of the movie. Their kite is the only one flying so Amir asked Sohrab, "Do you want me to run that kite for you?" Sohrab nod his head and Amir tell him, "For you, a thousand times over" and he starts running and runs and runs. I loved this part, because those were the exact same words that Hassan told Amir when they won the kite tournament, and before he got rapped by Assef and Amir not helping him. This movie and book were the best I loved it. (:

Which did you enjoy better, the novel or the movie? Please give specific
reasons why.
I enjoy the novel better because in the movie they skip alot of parts that we read in the novel. Also because the book was like so good and it will make me want to come to school everyday and read it. The movie was good but the novel was better.
