The first book I'm going to review for you is "The Book Thief" by Markus Zusak. This is the story of Liesel Meminger, a foster child in Nazi Germany. Narrated by Death this book gives a very individual view of life at that time. Very well written and enjoyable, although rather depressing at times. I admit I had to take a break from this one and read something lighter for a bit. Unfortunately, I didn't get to the end. I had to give it back because it had been requested by another patron at the library. I wanted to rate it, but I don't feel like I read enough of it to give an acurate rating.
Let me put it this way, if you're in the mood for a book that makes you think this is an excellant choice. Very well written and thought provoking. I hope you enjoy it!
