A review by troystory
The Book Thief by Markus Zusak
5.0
I remember hearing this was a good book, and all I knew about it (which was vague, to say the least) was that it took place during WW2 and it was about a girl who stole books. And I was pleasantly surprised to learn it was about so much more. I won't go into detail about the plot here, because that's what the book's summary is for.
I don't think I have the words to describe how amazing this book is. It's captivating, heartbreaking, well-written, and most importantly, it's the kind of story that sticks with you. I don't think I'll ever forget Liesel and Hans, Rudy and Rosa, Max and, of course, the narrator. And beyond being beyond wonderful, it's one of those books that give you a glimpse into the kindness and love human beings are capable of. I can't recommend it enough.
What are you waiting for? Go read The Book Thief!
