Helpful Score: 1
the story is about liesel meminger, a jewish girl fostered by a german couple in germany during/before world war II. and quite uncommonly, death is the narrator of the story. interesting read, although there are pages in the book where i felt i was lost. death somehow distracted me, with the way he switches the scenarios and the way he tells it. sometimes i would even experience boredom as some parts were too long.
this book, as we know what holocaust stories are all about, features death and dying, war and other aspects of life such as love, hope, friendship, acceptance and compassion among others. summing it up, it's a good story.
what really tugged my heart, almost to a point where i cried, was liesel's friendship with rudy steiner and their "kiss". it was, for me, the most beautiful and at the same time, the most painful and saddest part of the story.
