Book Review- The Book Thief by Markus Zusak



I love to read and so I decided to keep track of the books I read on this blog so it has a purpose.

Last night at 5 a.m. I finished The Book Thief by Markus Zusak. It was a book written for "young adults" and I read an article in the Standard Examiner that highly recommended it.

I had a hard time getting into it at first. Very depressing but then when I got the rhythym of the book I started liking it. It was about Nazi Germany and bombings and how powerful WORDS are. Hitler's words and author's words.

I loved the character Hans how he was so good to Liesl.

Good book but I'm glad I can now start another one.

The Brain Surgery Was a Success

The surgery was a success last Friday and the doctor's found what they were looking for- a huge oversized BRAIN.  Now it answers the question- why am I so intelligent.  However they removed party of my trachea and stitched up my inside and outside of my throat.  I just hope none of the brain juice leaks out.
