This month's book is the Book Thief.

Yay

Starting it today! :)

Not loving it :(

oh oh, I haven't started yet but I was considering it.

I have a confession to make. I decided to watch the movie without having first read the book. Blasphemy...I know. Even though I had my doubts, I actually liked the film. However, I probably won't get around to reading it anytime soon. I have too many other books ahead of it on my to-read list. I just have one question: is Death the narrator in the book?

I'm finding the style of this book really difficult to read. I can't seem to focus on it. I've tried starting it twice now.

It was a surprisingly difficult read for a children's book. But worth it in the end.

And yes, I'm pretty sure it was Jacq. Never said, but certainly alluded to.

I'm into it a lot more now, but it really took some doing. I'm just over half way.
