I just read A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini, and it is incredible. If you like Jodi Picoult, I would recommend Anita Shreve. Like Picoult, her works aren't earth-shattering, but still a fast read and keeps you guessing.
Did you read the first book, The Kite Runner? Im pretty sure the movie did nothing for the writing. Aside from the corny ending, what a good read.
