Wow! A fictional story set in Nazi Germany that I loved. Amazing. It’s been a very long time since that happened. The Book Thief was excellent. If you haven’t read it, push it up to the top of your “Must Read List”. Skip whatever is on your Summer Reading Challenge list and read this instead.
Maybe it’s the whole “death” thing, how many books are narrated by “death”? Not many that I’ve read, that’s for sure. Death is a good thing, I’ve always known that but The Book Thief has proven it.
Wow!

So would it be worth buying? It would take me forever and a year to get it from the library. It’s retailing for about $20CAD.
This sure looks interesting. I’ve added to my Amazon wishlist. I’m out of book money right now :(.
Monkey – consider it yours. TW and I have been talking about your BAFAB present and of course the week slipped past and we never picked one. Now we have. 😉
Lies, I understand out of book money. I understand out of money in general. I love my library.
Woohoo!
Speaking of sending books – did you guys get the one I sent you yet? I figure both the Canadian and American holidays last week likely slowed it down.
okay, another for my list! I’m using a trackback for you on my blog,if it’s ok, about the blok shelf stuff.
Oh no, it IS on my TBR stack! With such an admonishment, I may just need to start on it tonight…
I read in the July 31 Denver Post that they are remarketing The Bicycle Thief to teens. I will have to put this on my library list.
