A review by flamepea
The Book Thief by Markus Zusak

4.0

Death’s perspective was perfect, witty and creative. Even though he spoiled several deaths and events before they happened they hit you so much harder and go over your head more than you realise.

The Book Thief captured WWII and Adolf Hitler times
perfectly and if death wasn’t the perspective but just Liesel you would’ve thought it to be non-fiction. I love learning about the WWII era, of course, it was a horrific time but it is interesting to learn about.

Normally when another language is added to the book it annoys me because I usually don’t understand it (it’s usually explained) but it gives no purpose and just useless information that might end up stuck in my brain. However, it was perfect timing.
