A review by chelseatm
The Book Thief by Markus Zusak

4.0

It was a good read and I definitely cried at the end but during and even after reading the book, I still couldn't pinpoint where I found it amazing or compelling. It was well written with an interesting concept ;the characters were well developed and that was the reason I cried was because I was so engrossed on their existence. However I don't think much actually happens except a unique character study placed in the second world war. I think kids would enjoy this book but I would pair it with conversation so that they understood what was going on and the historical context. Recommended
