Another book that I really liked by Markus Zusak. I enjoyed listening to this on audio. The person that read the story was Australian so it really made the story come alive. Ed was your stereotypical deadbeat and I loved how he changed throughout the book with meeting all of the people he was involved with. 
 I was disappointed when I found out who the person was that was sending Ed the playing cards...kind of surprised at the same time. 
 This storyline kind of reminded me of the movie (yes, because I didn't read the book) Pay it forward.
