Book Review of The Book Thief

The Book Thief

Helpful Score: 2


I loved the book! The development of the characters was seamless and believable. Some parts were heartbreaking but I couldn't put the book down.

Years ago we lived near Dachau and I'll never forget the sculpture at the entrance to the camp. It was a crown of thorns made of barbed wire. The most moving art we've ever seen and seeing the reaction to it of others was very emotional as well.

This book is such a testament to human strength and spirit.
