This was a really good book. I listened to it on audio, and outside of the music intro and outro, it was simply amazing. I liked how the story was told, and even though certain events are outright told you by the narrator, the events' impact is still pretty powerful. This story is set during WWII, in Munich, Germany, and centers on the life of one small girl. Through her eyes, her words, and love of books, you get to see what it was like living in Germany during the height of the Nazi power and how it affected those who did not agree with Nazi philosophy. Told through the eyes of Death, it was an intriguing tale of Liesel and her friendship and relationships with those around her. A really beautiful but sad story. 4.5 stars
