That was what made the book so unique and suspenseful for me. But it is still a beautiful and interesting story. I'm glad I loved it too.

I love books with crossover appeal and I think this would be a great one to suggest to someone who doesn't read YA. It's one of the best YA historical fiction novels I have ever read.My Thoughts....

I typically enjoy the adaptations more if I do it that way. I actually haven't seen this movie yet but now that I loved the book I really want to. I agree, it is first about people in a terrible situation. I think the sympathetic nature of the characters is what made the book so emotional for me.My Thoughts....

You're right, Death's narration made the whole book that much more beautiful and suspenseful. So glad you had such a good experience with the book.Bookmark Dragonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07268509613086029168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8158143373242218557.post-48984733578108730332015-04-13T17:56:26.141-04:002015-04-13T17:56:26.141-04:00Currently reading this one right now, and absolute...Currently reading this one right now, and absolutely loving it!

However, it only made me extra excited to read the book--and your review has cemented that. I love how character focused the story is. It's foremost about people, people in a terrible situation.
