I have started reading "The Book Thief" by Markus Zusak.
This book was recommended by my SIL as he is an English teacher in high school. "The Book Thief" is one of the books that he recommends to his students.
I will say that at first I was not thrilled with the story as it was confusing. Once I got past the 2% mark then the story really started. The story is told by Death and that is what made it hard for me to understand. I am only at 5% now and I am hooked and dont want to put it down.
The price right now is $5.00 so it is a bargin.
Two of my daughters and I are reading it together, well they are way ahead of me because I had to finish "Night Light". My other daughter is finishing "Night Light" also.
I hope that you look at this book and try it. I will let you you know how it is going as the day or days go on. With the cold temps right now ( 12 for a high with a wind chill of -4), I think I might get a lot of reading done. Oh poor me...lol
Have a great word day.
I'm at 14% and really, really liking it!! Two of Jase's favorite books that he "made" me read were "Of Mice and Men" and "Old Man and the Sea." They were both really quick reads. I liked them both, but I liked "Of Mice and Men" much better!
