Vivid images, dark humor, deep, powerful story on the Holocaust. That's my verdict of The Book Thief. The foreshadowing was too much in my opinion but the book was worth reading and I highly recommend it.
By the way, this Thursday at 7:00 P.M. is the Waycross College Holocaust Remembrance in the auditorium. We'll be seeing a film called 'The Devil's Arithmetic' starring Kirsten Dunst and based on the book of the same name. No charge for admission.
This blog is for book lovers. Initially this blog focused on the books selected by members of the Okefenokee Book Club who used to meet in Waycross, Georgia. Now, it is about my reading interests. I will also continue to post any interesting information related to writers, libraries, and book clubs in general.
