The Book ThiefThe Book Thief by Markus Zusak
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is a hard book to read. Liesl, the book thief, is an amazingly resilient girl, living in Nazi Germany during World War II. Filled with interesting characters and narrated by weary Death, Zusak captures both the hope and the hopelessness of people living through war. This heartbreaking, uplifting novel will stay with readers long after they have turned the last page.
