The Book Thief by Markus Zusak


Everybody has been telling me (for aaages) that I MUST read The Book Thief. I may never have gotten around to it except that one of the book clubs I'm a member of decided to discuss it this month.

So, yesterday, on the airplane, I decided to take the plunge and open those pages. Kazaam! I recall now that even my father went out of his way to tell me how much I'd enjoy this book.

The Book Thief
is set in Nazi Germany and is narrated by death. Our focus is young Liesel as she navigates the stricken town of Molching, outside of Munich, Germany.

Pick it up, you won't put it down.
