** spoiler alert ** 
 When I first found this book it was on the Required Summer Reading Shelf. I thought this book is probably going to be boring, so I opened up the first page to see how it started. 
 It said that it was narrated by death; I thought that's something you don't see too often 
 So I embarked on reading and finishing this book. 
 I'd have to say it was completely unlike what I expected, it was much better. 
 I have been given a completely new perspective on the personification of death and I have learned the true power of words. 
 Definitely a must-read.
