Welcome to our Book Thief Blog!

Amazon.ca describes this book as a "dark and powerfully absorbing novel, brilliantly executed". It's narrator calls it "just as small story, really." Jump in with both feet and surrender to one of the most gripping, unusual, hilarious books I've read in years. It's a book about books, about hate, about love, and about how words can be our most powerful weapons.

Characters - Death

What sort of an impact has Death played in the story?

I think having Death as a narrator has a huge effect on the story because he knows the fate of each character. If Liesal was the narrator we, the readers, would only hear her part of the story. Death would not be able to follow her throughout her life.
