Shooting Kabul, written by N.H Senzai, is a magnificent book that I really enjoyed reading. The story starts off in Kabul Afghanistan, and then it makes its way to San Francisco, California. It takes place in 2001 around the time of 9/11. Fadi is the main character who has a love for taking photos. Habib is the father of Fadi and he is very loving and protective over his family. Noor is the oldest sister and strives to help her family even if she has an attitude. Zafoona is the mother who is very caring, but also sick, so she can’t do much.

I would recommend this book to other students because it teaches a good lesson and is very interesting. If I were to rate this book I would give it 5/5 because it is very well written. For example I could not find any part I didn’t understand. Shooting Kabul is definitely one of my favorite books and I am very glad I read
