When he started talking about death taking a vacation, i thought of that family guy episode where death breaks his leg and nobody can die, so peter fills in for him. I know simpsons did it first, but i didnt think of that one as much.
This story was quite well written... and yes the narrative perspective did add a unique dimension to the story:) I don't think I've ever cried so much when reading a book! One thing is that I thought it odd how death seemed cynical towards faith even tho that last conversation between the story's two narrators did make it appear that there was life after death... I also wish there had been less swearing so that I could recommend it to younger readers since it's definitely a powerful story!
Just finished it last night! It was a phenomenal book! Death is such a fascinating character, I agree that he really is the one who makes this book stand out so much. Some of the things he said just gave me the chills. I can't wait to reread this one, oh and it's just downright sacrilegious to read the end of a book first. Patience is a virtue.
@goude3 I would think he is her husband because when Liesel dies it says she saw the the lives of her three children, grandchildren, husband, Hans, Rosa, brother, and Rudy (the boy with the hair the color of lemons:) amongst all the lives whose paths had "merged" with hers... Max's name didn't seem to be mentioned but he was so important to her that there's no way he would have been left out of the list. I can then only guess that he was indeed mentioned... as her "husband" :)
just a hint! I really like your opiinions and views...but if you've indicated that only ppl who have read it to watch this...then you don't need to read so much of it for us - we've done that already! Other than that 5 *.
I liked the Book Thief, but for some reason I couldn't finish it. I'll probably go back sometime. I agree that Death as a narrator was cool, but I just got halfway through and I couldn't keep going. Go figure.
he looks like DALLAS GREEN lol

Brilliant! :3
You should do a book review for the Bartamieus trilogy! Mainly the first one "the Amulet of Samarkand" by Jonathan Stroud...
The first one is the best! :)

I have to know the end to know if I like it or not, so in the store before I read the book I read the last page to see if I want to buy it

@radazel My favorite book? The Time Traveler's Wife, by Audrey Niffenegger. (Review #7). This one's definitely up there, though.
