One of my favorite books - AND movies! For me, the scene I can't unsee is the good neighbor hauled away by the Nazis and how powerless the German civilians were to stop them. Your review makes me want to revisit this story.
And this!
Liesel “steals” books .... [to] escape from the pain and chaos that surrounded her... she understood something very important, that reading is a powerful and sometimes undervalued weapon, but the Nazis knew very well the reach that words can have.
Yes, it is a book to reflect on and above all to remind us that the holocaust really existed and that it will always remain as a scar on humanity, we must remember it to prevent it from happening again.
