The Book Thief

When I found out The Book Thief was coming to theaters I was so excited. I informed the boyfriend that we must go see it. However I am a little worried that he has not read the book. We made a deal that we will take turns picking out books for each other. I can read my choice then the next time he picks a book for me. This also works for him. He currently has picked out I Claudius. Review is coming for that soon. I have him reading The Night Circus. Anyhow back to the point of this. Seeing as the movie is coming out I wanna do a review of this book for you guys.

The Book Thief was a wonderful book. What makes this book so different right from the start is the fact is that Death is telling the story. Death tell us of how busy they are. How one girl seemed to get to Death. Her name is Liesel Meminger. The time is 1939. In case you didn't know its during WWII. Poor kid is in Germany. Liesel is living with a foster family who does care for her but its not the same as being her actual family. She begins to steal books as comfort from the horrors of her life. This book called to me cause I have a thing for WWII. When I started this book I was hooked from the start. Liesel is a character that you just fall in love with. She is a spunky and brave girl. It is because of her I learn of the classes the kids had to go to that brain washes them about Hitler. Its an actual requirement by the government to go. You see through her eyes the horrors of Jews being marched to the camp that is near her. My heart was with her through the whole book. I was at one point in bed with a book light at 3 in the morning refusing to put the book down. I found at times tears streaming down my face. Not even realizing I was crying in till the tears fell on to the book. It hooked me and tugged at my heart strings. I highly recommend this book. Its one of those books that I really think one should read before seeing the movie.

Hello! I am back.

So for months I have been fighting to log back in. I changed schools and it kept trying to sign me in to my school stuff and wouldn't let me sign in. With school I have been so busy that I have not had time to read. However, I have read so many books I want to tell you all about that its not to bad.
Now that I can log back in its back to blogging. I really would like to find a way to get more followers though.
Anyhey. Point is I am back people!
