Kathy I'm about half way through and am loving this book. I like the way it's done in letters..it feels very personal.

Laetitia I loved your review. You encapsulated it perfectly. I was the same, a reader who normally shied away from World War anything books but I could not put this down and will remember it forever.

Fiona Finally, I'm reading it. I just hope I like it... did you say it takes 20 pages to get into it?

Laura Yeah, I'd give it 20 or so pages. You may be sucked in before that.

Becky I now have this book at my house but am working on some library books before I start it. Have any of you read The Book Thief? It's WW2 fiction and it's one of my favorite books of all time. The narrator is Death, not a person but the concept.

Laura Yes, Becky, and it's a terrific book! Love it, and love Zusak by the way. I am the Messenger, also by Zusak, is another terrific book.
