Ashley (readerandwriter) Death makes a noteworthy note

"I've seen so many young men over the years who think they're running at other young men. The are not. They're running at me."


This is so true when it comes to a time of war and young men are fighting. They aren't running towards the enemy, they are running at Death. If they are lucky they won't bump into him.


Lisa Vegan (lisavegan) Yes, that's a noteworthy line! It gave me the chills.


Catamorandi (wwwgoodreadscomprofilerandi) That statement is, indeed, true and a sad commentary about the young men who get trapped in a war.

This was a good statement from Death. Also in part 4 I loved Max's story. And how he wrote it using pages from a book and paint. Handmade free gifts are sometimes the best gifts ever.


lionlady | 32 comments Yes, that line made me stop and catch my breath. It was a bit of a sucker punch of truth.
