WORTH CONSUMING!

NO SPOILERS
I normally do not read novels involving wars and etc, but I really enjoyed reading The Book Thief. Its story is very interesting and touched my heart. The only thing that I was disappointed about was the ending: it should have had more details.

A story about this — 1 year ago

Although this was very moving, I found the style and the constant foreshadowing very irritating and also thought that the end was quite manipulative.

Why I recommend this — 2 years ago

WORTH CONSUMING!

Several years ago I saw American Beauty at the cinema. For those who haven’t seen it the characters and events of the film are quite dark and depressing. However, I left the cinema glad to be alive.

I had the same emotions washing over me as I read the Book Thief. It is a story of sad events that take place during the second world war. The book is even narrated by Death. But as I finished the book there was a deep joy that I felt within.

I’ll not say anymore apart from recommending you read this. It is now one of my favourite books of all time.
