Discussion 5- Final Thoughts

Overall, I really enjoyed The Book Thief. It was really interesting, especially having the setting take place in Nazi Germany. I feel like that was a really important part of the book that made it that much better and more intriguing. I also really liked the plot about a girl who steals books, even though there are some sad parts. Zusak did a great job of writing the book and putting in the figurative language, which really made the book easier to understand. The thing that I enjoyed the most about the book was that Death was the narrator. It was different to read a book from that view and not even have death as a sad character. The characters in the book were very interesting, especially Rosa. A part of relief in the book is Hans and Liesel's relationship because they are so loving towards each other and they both definitely need one another. The book was definitely an easier read than some of the other books that we have read this year, but still enjoyable!
