Markus Zusak, 2005

Date read: 4/16/25


Jesus fucking Christ, my heart. Yet another WWII novel that breaks me. So amazingly well written, really brilliant, and unique with Death as the main protagonist and narrator.


This novel is absolutely beautiful. I absolutely will not see the movie. My heart couldn't take it.
