The thief that steals a lot more than just books


This book is amazing it goes from mood to mood for example happiness and sadness are closer than you might expect. Yet it all works and it works so good!the characters will get to you and you will end up loving them. But the sadness will hit when big characters die you might even cry (p.s. I didn't but was still very sad). All in all I would recommend this book. The plot will astonish you.

I recommend the book thief based on its characters because they are interesting just finding out their past. For example Liesel our main character had a hard past being put to adoption with her brother but him dying on the way to their new foster parents. Her new parents seem nice well at least one of them. Any way the characters in this story will surprise you at time and mostly the mean parent.

The plot of this book is astonishing it literally has anything from life, love, death, and hate. Maybe if this book wasn't as long you wouldn't get as sidetracked. This book is to long the author takes to long for the good part to begin and once it does it takes to long of brakes between the good juicy interesting parts. Any way because of the way the book is written it may seem like it takes you years to read.

My reaction to this book was a lot better than my previous statement. Once you finish the book you relize how good this book really is. The plot was just so good and unexpected. The characters were easy to love. The setting just makes it ten times better. When you reads a book taken place during World War II in Germany people instantly think Jews but this is about Germans that want to help Jews which is a totally different point of view.

The book thief, a book that can go from laughter to sobbing is just a wonderful book that illustrates the way of anti-nazi Germans helping Jews get through life.
