LA Readers Response 3/21/11

The Book Thief
page 1-27

     The beggining doesn't start with introducing and explaining the character so I think that really hooked me, a bit of mystery to reel the reader in. I also like how the author put little bold sections in to help explain thing that are in the book. At the beggining I couldn't tell who the point of veiw was from, but a little ways into the book it kind of explained who was telling the story, it is kind of like and angel, that delivers souls to the underworld or something.
     I kind of felt glad that the main character Leisel was not a jew because it's kind of boring when all you get to read about is how dusty the attic is or how horrible the concentration camp is, this book seems a little more interesting. I truthfully hope that Leisel doesn't get caught, and that would be fun to be able to steal books from the bad guys, you might feel like your helping to defeat them and help the good cause.
Though I don't htink I wouold be brave enough to steal from Nazis, knowing that you might get shot down any time.
