Wow. That was a life-changing book. That was so sad. I am so glad that I read it, though. This is one of those books that is becoming a modern classic and everyone knows about it. And it definitely deserves that classic status. What a read. What a sad yet beautiful story. I love this book. But I'll probably never read it again.

I often don't go in for sad tales. Still, the artistry and beauty of the writing, characters and emotional vulnerability of this book leaves me feeling all the richer after every read!
I love the mood and the way the visual atmospheres are painted for you, and will always treasure The Book Theif.
