As I was reading through the end of Chapter 11, I noticed that Amir had taken interest in a girl named Soraya, who was the daughter of General Sahib. Toward the end of the chapter Amir says "Lying awake in bed that night, I thought of Soraya Taheris sickle-shaped birthmark, and the way her luminous eyed had fleetingly held mine. My heart stuttered at the thought of her. Soraya Taheri. My Swap Meet Princess." I could tell he had fallen in love. Further on in the book Amir marries Soraya in chapter 12. Amir feels that Soraya is the most understanding, caring women in his life and it gives him joy that she had also had secrets , but had the guts to reveal them to him. Even though she revealed that she had ran away with a man before him, he accepted her, because he also had secrets, but had no courage to say them. Soraya is a wonderful character that brought Amir company and brought love into the book.
