The Book Thief by Markus Zusak
The Book Thief

momsince2000, January 20, 2012

This book is another example of why I love book clubs so much. I probably would have never picked this book up to read on my own and would never have made it past the first 75 pages if it wasn't our book club pick for the month. Once I got into the book I couldn't put it down. I fell in love with the characters. My heart pulled for them in their struggles and ached for them in their disappointments and sufferings. No matter how much I read about that period in world history, I will never be able to fully grasp what life was like in Nazi Germany. This book helped put you right into the thick of it. I would highly recommend reading The Book Thief with a warning that the you must get past the first 75-100 pages before you decide to put it down for good.
