The Book Thief

Hello fellow bloggers and followers. It has been awhile since our last blog post. I have started a new book. It is called the book thief. It is kind of confusing at first, and I am still in the beginning so I am still confused. It is about a young girl, that the narrator calls the book thief. She is on her way to her new foster parents house, when her brother dies. When she arrives the people are expecting two kids. so they are a little disappointed/sad/confused. The book thief becomes comfortable with the family and that is where I am so far. I forgot to tell you that at her brothers funeral, one of the grave diggers dropped his book and she stole it. This gave her the name, The Book Thief. She will steal more books, but so far she has stolen only one. I am not sure what I think about the book so far. It is good because it is very descriptive of the people, and the land. But it is slow and I do not like slow books, or movies, or games, or shows, or anything. My Dad recommended this book to me. He gives me a book to read, unless I am already reading one. I think it is different than the other books I have blogged about because it is based before our time in the thirty's or forty's. It is also different than other books I have read based around then because they are not against Hitler. Overall, I am not sure If i like it or not.
