The Kite Runner

I've been reading The Kite Runner and have gone through chapter 9. So far I think the main character, Amir, is very selfish, self-centered, and arrogant. He thinks of Hassan as a friend, but he has never been nice to him. Amir watched in confusion, yeah, confusion, as Hassan was raped in an alleyway. Amir did not step in, but instead ran away. Hassan came back to the house crying and Amir did his best to avoid him. Amir ultimately got Hassan and his father ousted from their home. I do NOT like Amir one iota.
