My reading of the book thief My thoughts about the book: Reading the book has been both interesting and exiting‚ especially since I have a special interest in history. Reading about a young girl in Nazi Germany‚ with the narrator being Death‚ really gets to you‚ and drags youn into the book. It is quite long(540 pages)‚ but you shouldn’t let that stop you from reading it. It is worth it! The book is simply magnificent‚ and the author Markus Zusak has done a terrific job writing it.
