Books The Book Thief

[Bahumat]

I know there is a book thread, but for me, this book deserves a thread of it's own!

The Book Thief left a massive lump in my throat at the end and it was simply brilliant!

The only way I could describe the book is this.
"It gives you that same 'OMFG WOW' feeling you very rarely get with a book or film. To me this was achieved with The Usual Suspects and The Shawshank Redemption". The book was an absolute joy to read!

It's pretty decent but unspectacular. Quite clichéd and over sentimental, but very readable.

Yeah I thought it was really well crafted story as well. really enjoyed it.
