The book "The Book Thief" written byMarkus zusak I believe to be a realy good book. a tale of love loss recovery and tragedy. In this book there are several key aspects that help to make it as enjoyable as it is. I would recommend this book to other high school students because of its cheracters, its setting, as well as how it made me react.

    The characters in the book The Book Thief seem to come right off of pages. Markus Zusak is really able to capture the emotions and portray them in  the readers mind. Liezel is a main character of the book while reading I had no trouble visualizing all of her experience and emotions. Rudy another character is a relatable trouble maker who really gets close to the reader as the book progresses. These characters are the star of the show and the best part of the book.

    The setting in the book is a compelling source emotion attached to the characters as we'll creating underlying tone of the book. The setting of "The Book Thief" is set on Hummel street Nazi Germany. This is essentially the poor part of town even more so than the already poor Germany. Because the book is set in the poorer part of town this creates an exciting and suspenseful foreshadowing of hard times to come. "The Book Thief" was also exciting because of the way it made me react.

    This book I can honestly say is one of the best books I've read and I don't like reading. Everyone in the book creates a strong connection between the reader and the character . Every character was imbedded in my mind because of how Markus Zusak portrayed them. No matter who it was the book thief or there friends even the antagonists created a strong emotional tie with me. This book made me react stronger than most of the books I've read and I will never forget it. That is why I would recommend this book to high school students.
