No it isn't used correctly. Plus, the pronouns aren't clear as to who is being referenced. Amir always tries to ingratiate himself with Baba's father to make him love him more than his cousin, Hassan. (the last 'his' refers back to Baba's father, so him, him, and his need clarified more) Amir always tried to ingratiate himself with Baba to make Baba's father love him more Baba's father loved Amir's cousin, Hassan. (love him-- who is him? does it refer to Amir, Baba or Hassan?) Think about the exact person Amir is trying to "ingratiate himself to", then see if you can use names more than pronouns. When a name appears, the first pronoun after that refers directly to THAT person. Again, use more names and make sure to sort out the pronouns and make sure each pronoun refers directly back to the person's name.
