A book to read, a book to feel

Just finished reading "The book thief". It was not a book to read fast and skip lines; I enjoyed every single line, felt nervous, helpless and frightened with Liesel, Hans and Rosa. 


"The book thief" is a novel by Markus Zusak for the time of Nazi Germany. It about the life of a girl, her foster parents and a young Jewish man who hides in their basement for some time during World War II. The idea of narrating the story by The Angel of Death is brilliant. After all, who could narrate the events of those years better than Death?
