My poor heart. This book is everything.

Original review
Wow, I really loved this book! It just gripped me and I could hardly put it down. At first I wasn't sure I was going to get into it, but once I got past the first 20 pages then it was smooth sailing.

A brilliant fictional story in the time of Nazi Germany. The story is cleverly narrated through the eyes of Death himself. This story is one that will leave you in awe. It is hard for me to even pick up another book to read right now because this one touched me so deeply. The ending brought tears to my eyes. This book is a MUST READ!!
