I thoroughly enjoyed this book. After being recommended to me by a friend whose judgement on books I would trust, I bought it off Amazon, and boy did I not regret it! The concept of a book narrated by 'Death' is a fascinating, and strangely touching one - it isn't at all morbid or dark as you might expect, but rather gentle, humourous and brilliantly human. The relationships feel real, the emotions genuine, and the story intriguing. This book really grabbed me and held on tight, and I would recommend it to anyone!

I used to read a lot and got out of the habit. In the past year or so, I have taken up reading again. I asked my Facebook friends for recommendations for a novel and this was one of them. I am so pleased I asked for the recommendations and that I went ahead and bought this book. Before this I read 'The Time Traveller's Wife' which I enjoyed and found moving. 'The Book Thief' goes so much deeper, though. I love the narrative style of 'Death', the characters are really engaging and the tragic history of the story makes it all so much more meaningful. It's an ending to make you cry!

I randomly picked this book up in my local book shop and did what you're not supposed to do and judged a book by its cover. And I'm so glad I did. This book is fantastic.
The device of having death as the narrator is genius, and nowhere near as depressing and grisly as it sounds. I do have to admit though, that I sobbed reading this book.
I enjoyed reading it throughly. I found myself staying up until all hours of the night, unable to put it down. I read it in the space of two days and only took that long because I had to put it down to go to work!
Stunning. I would reccommend it to anybody!

This book is very boring! You have insomnia? Just read this. I bet you cannot read more than ten pages then you start snoring. Very bad! I hope they make a movie for this that I can know the end solution.
