Home Boy

Excellent

This novel, although set in the background of Pakistani experience in a post 9/11 world, provides a deep insight into the broader immigrant experience from the point of view of a young immigrant who comes to study in the US and struggles with making the adopted country a permanent home. It also reflects the struggles of first and second generation of immigrants and the tensions between them.A moving story, very well told by the author who is observant and sensitive to the world around him.

Just an overall well written story that kept me captivated from beginning to end. Something to take the time to read.

Terrible book. I stopped reading it, and I rarely abandon a book.

Wonderful book. Funny, touching, sad, swinging from New York cosmopolitan life to the aftermath of 9/11. A memoir of a simpler time. I loved it.

This book is brilliant. I could not put it down. The author has a very promising future.
