The first time I read this book I gave it 3 stars and never thought I would read it again. I read it again because I will be teaching it next term. I cried. In a coffee shop. I think the lady working was really concerned for me. There was a language barrier including me pointing to my book to try and explain. She brought me tissues. I love the death narrator and all of the questions Zusak brings up. When my students ask for the "correct" answer, I know I won't have one because there is not correct answer for so many things in life.


(My earlier review)
The entire concept of this book in a unique look at the holocaust. While I enjoyed the different outlooks, the formatting took a decent 100 pages for my brain to fluidly comprehend. I especially recommend this book for one with a science-centered thought process.
