anna_99l 's review for:

The Book Thief by Markus Zusak
5.0
dark emotional funny sad tense slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

I feel like anything I write about this book will never do it justice. As the book thief knows herself it is difficult to make words right.

If you are the type of person who confidently says they never cry from reading a book this book will prove you wrong.

The only other thing I say is that the characters truly come to life in the pages: you feel like you understand Max, Liesel, Rudy, Rosa, Hans, etc. Death has a way of making you feel for them even more.
