Booklogging: The Book Thief

Early on, I realized that this book would need patience. It's a long book and it starts off by telling you the ending - there are no surprises in this book and after a while that in itself became satisfying. The narrator does not make you wait for the ending, he tells you it and what keeps you reading is the question "how did we get from here to there?"

This is a book about a lot of things: Germany during WWII, friendship, love. It's also a book about grief and how people deal with it.
