"Twelve-Step Guide to Grave-Digging Success." Who would want to read this? Why does the grave digger need a guide on who to bury a dead body?!?! Is it very complicated to bury a body? I would think not. I hope Liesel doesn't get any strange ideas after she reads this. At the end of chapter it also says, "the beginning of an illustrious career." So that is mentioning foreshadowing. I hope she won't get caught.

"...it took nearly 15 minutes to coax her from the car." Does that mean the Liesel is scared about this new foster family? Why would it take someone so long to go in a house. It's as if she thinks there's a monster in the house.

"The boy was getting heavy." Was the mother carrying the "soul" of the boy or was she actually carrying him. Just before that quote thought he was being buried by the grave-diggers. I wonder what that book Liesel picked up was about.

This book so far has put me an a sad mood because of the way the author writes, it makes everything sound devastating. "I've seen more eclipses than I care to remember." Does Death not like his job? It seems like Death has a little soft side on these kinds of things.

The words on the first page in bold read, "You are going to die." This really caught my attention when I was reading and made me wonder...is the main character going to end up dead? Then at the bottom of the page in bold it says, "Does this worry you? I urge you- don't be afraid. I'm nothing of not fair." Does this mean that people are going to die because it's fair?
