    What is Book Theif about?

    I'm rereading Deathly Hallows. I can't be bothered to read something new at the moment, I like knowing what's going to happen.
    The Book Thief is about a Jewish girl living in Germany during WW II, her little brother dies on a train journey when they are being taken to foster parents, I just found it too depressing, the librarian is now reading it after I returned the book, she quite likes it.

    I cried for the last few chapters.. I really enjoyed it.. it is sad but also very funny and warm... you can't help but become attached to the characters.

    Abigail, when it was given to me, I left it on a shelf for ages cause it didn't seem to my kind of book either but when I picked it up, I couldn't put it down, I really love it now

    I'm reading Overheard in a Dream by Torey Hayden. The best book I've read in a while.

    I'm reading Perfect Match by Jodi Picoult. It's quite good - dealing with a sensitive subject well so far. I've also got Vanishing Act and Brick Lane to take with me on holiday.
    Peter: So how many are there? Is it bad? Olivia: Did you eat? Peter: Yeah. Olivia: Well, that's unfortunate.
