It is 1939, Nazi, Germany, the country is holding its breath. Death has never been busier, and will become busier still... 
 I spent the whole time gripping the book tightly in my hands as I experience what Liesl is experiencing too. Hiding a Jew from the Nazi, contemplating her life from her past and now meeting her new family, losing your brother, new friendship, what's happening to the world your living in... Amazing read, paced slowly but surely did left me sobbing on the last 40 to 50? pages of the book. And I thought I wouldn't say this but Death surely is very lively in here.
