The Book Thief by Markus Zusak

5.0

You know when you pick up a book and from the very start you know it's going to make you cry? That was The Book Thief for me. And, it's not like the narrator hides what's going to happen. Yet still, I was caught off guard and for the last 50 pages or so I was just kind of ugly crying. What a gorgeous book. I won't rehash the premise, I'm sure it's been told much better than I can do it justice. It's definitely a must read, if you haven't. I'm not sure why I put it off so long, and even while reading it, I stretched it out. All I can say is, it was worth the wait.
