This book was very interesting as a historical fiction book. I can see why it received the Pulitzer Prize. 
 The story is about Werner, a German Solider and Marie-Laure-a French girl who is blind. The book covers their journeys throughout World War II and also some present day action occurs. 
 The set up for this book is kind of different than any other book because the chapters are not chapters they are labeled with titles and then there are 12 parts. What I did like is that because these chapters or sections within parts are short you feel like you have read a lot of pages. I don't think this is one of those books that you could sit down and read in one sitting unless you are a historical fiction junkie. If you are you will fly through this book. 
 I recommend this book to adults, possible high school students who need a little perspective on World War II or need a book to site for papers although the characters are fictional some of the information about the schools for German youth and such are true (I think). It does make you think. 3.5 stars.
