A review by elisabethfurlong
The Book Thief by Markus Zusak

2.0

I had heard so much about this book that I thought it would be better. The idea of death as a narrator is an amazing concept, but to have the narrator basically interrupt the flow of the story to interject with overly descriptive scenery just did not impress me. Every time I would get interested in the action of the story I was jarred out of it to read some poetic nonsense. I was very disappointed.
