The Book thief by Marcus Zusac

Post by Faith_Lyons24 »

i'm almost finished with this book and i love it. When i first heard about this book at first I didn't think i would like it. as i usually only read books if they have romance in them of some sort. but now I am so glad i decided to pick this book up cause it is amazing. it's set in world war 2 Germany and follows a young girl named Liesel and it is her story of growing up in germany during that time. what i find really interesting about this book is it is told from the perspective of death or the Grim reaper. and throughout the book as he is telling liesel's story he also will include his experiences during that time as well. this book will make you happy and it will make you cry, I think this book is a book for everyone. i am very glad i read this book.
