This book made me sob so much!!
I liked the narration, although the angel of death made me mad when he had to tell us beforehand the destiny of every character!
I loved Max, Rudy, Papa and the mayor's wife. I adored the books Max made for Liesel.
I cried a lot in the end of the book, the words were captivating!
I think the importance of this novel lays in describing the daily life in Germany under the Nazi, the difference of opinions and the silence following a different opinion and the public ignorance of concentration camps.
The German were a victim in this war as well.
This book is a favourite but I cannot read it again..at least not soon!! I loved it so much!
Highly recommended!
