It's strange, I'm not a very emotional person and when thinking back on this story it feels like I shouldn't have enjoyed it whatsoever. But somehow I absolutely loved this novel (It even had to choke back some tears!). 

This novel is just so much of everything I love in a story, it had people going through very rough times yet still able to have humor, it had great writing, all of the characters were good and human, and overall the story was just so good.  Even some scenes that can be seen as a little bit cheesy -
The whole clapping scene at Anne Frank's house
- I think are actually well put together and if you delve deeper into the writing make sense. 

There isn't one thing that I can point at to show it's a good story like I can with other books, this one has a bit of everything which makes sense as to why it was a massive hit. And, well, it deserves every bit of its success.
