Rating  - An awsome book!!!
This book was fantastic!! I just got done with it, literally, and i must say it is one great piece of literature. This was a summer reading assingment and i was not looking forward to it because of it's length, but trust me, you get over that quickly. It was actually a quick read since there is much spacing in the book. Since i am a world class procrastinator i was forced to finish it in less than 5 days.
The big seller on this for me was the narrator being death during WW II. A fantastic perspective for that time, don't you think? Please buy this book, you will not be sorry! By the way there is a film coming out in 2010 so you could read the book and then compare it to the movie when it is released. Happy reading, Juan
Rating  - Too self-conscious for me to finish
I'm afraid I'm writing this review without having read the whole book. After reading the first couple chapters I became so impatient with the affected, graceless prose that I left off reading. Tries to be too cute and arty, forgets to show instead of tell.
Rating - One of the best books I've ever read
This was an amazing story. Truly extraordinary. I wish I could give it more than 5 stars and I wish I could take the author aside, look him in the eye, and tell him how much I truly loved this book. It was haunting, stunning, sad, amazing and gripping. I didn't know it was a Young Adult book. It was so powerful. I sobbed and sobbed at the end. So beautifully written.
Rating - A story to enlighten and stir readers of all ages
This book really crept up on me. I read it, I liked it and I wanted to keep going. As the story progressed, I found myself more and more engrossed and more and more attached to the characters. By the end of the book I had a lump in my throat. And although there is soul-crushing sadness, there is a beauty and lightness in the story that is nothing if not uplifting. I highly recommend this book.
Rating - In my top 5
This book is in my top 5 fictional books of all time, behind The Godfather, For Whom the Bell Tolls, The Old Man and the Sea, and A Farewell to Arms. It is an extremely powerful and riveting book. I got it for Easter and when I got it It was my favorite book.
