Do you know all of the books on Nazi Germany? Here's another. It tells the story of your normal German Fraulein, Liesel Meminger. She goes to Hitler Youth and it takes her a while to discover what Hitler is and stands for. What can she do?

According to Wikipedia, Zusak is the author of six books. The Messenger, published in 2002, won the 2003 CBC Book of the Year Award and the 2003 NSW Premier's Literary Award (Ethel Turner Prize) in Australia and was a runner-up for the Printz Award in America. The Book Thief was published in 2005 and has since been translated into more than 30 languages. The Book Thief was adapted as a film of the same name in 2013.

The story takes place in one of, if not the worst times in history. World War 2 in Germany. In the city of Molching. Which is a fictional city near Munich.

Liesel Meminger is funny and witty. She is one of many narrators of the story.

"Shut [your mouth], Saumensch!”

Rosa Hubermann the strict foster parent of Liesel. This is not to say that she is insane. She can prove to be nice to Liesel, but if you get on her nerve... you’ve messed up.

"Saumensch, du dreckiges!“

The conflict in the book thief is that they shelter Max Vendenburg, a German Jew from Stuttgart. When Hans, Liesel's father, empathizes with a Jew (Max) publicly, the Nazis search around his house.

The theme of this story is fear, death and brainwashing, yet also childhood innocence and learning. Liesel goes to a Hitler Youth Academy in the fictional city of Molching where she is constantly taught about Hitler and all that jazz. She is 9 at the beginning of the story. Then, she meets Max who moves in with her family to escape prosecution. Yet after, everyone she knows dies except for Max in a bombing of her street.

I would rate the story a four to a four-and-a-half out of five stars:

Pros:

Deep story

Great characters

Contains everyday, relatable characters

Some funny bits

Historically accurate

Cons

Sometimes I could not tell who was the narrator

Some awkward parts of the book (The book is meant for adults, OK?)

My favourite part of this book is when Rosa came to Liesel's school. She then asked for some private time with Liesel and screamed at her loudly and then quietly whispered to Liesel that Max was awake. She gave Liesel a toy that Max told her to. Liesel thanked Rosa and then when Rosa left and Liesel came back in the class, she called Rosa 'stupid cow' for screaming at her. She got a slap from her teacher for that one.
