Wow...Just wow!
I'm so late to reading this book, but I'm kicking myself for having waited this long. This work made me go through so many emotions, especially towards the end. I can't believe they ban a book this beautiful, it makes me sick to know that some want to keep this out of people's hands.
I could go on for hours about this book and still not say enough. Firstly, the POV as Death is an absolutely inspired idea for this book. Secondly, the story feels completely original and tells a story that I don't think gets told enough; I fell in love with these characters and I was gob smacked at how Zusak wrote this.
Incredible, both heartwarming and soul-crushing, showing both the beauty and horror that is possible in our world.
