The Book Thief, by Markus Zusak, is a fictional historic drama that is about a young girl named Liesel who steals books from the Nazi army who plan on burning them due to censorship reasons. Liesel and her family then take in a young Jewish boy to protect him and give him shelter away from the Nazis. This puts the family at great risk of getting in trouble. I'm reading this book because a good friend of mine told me he read it over the summer and really enjoyed it. I really like how the book is about the Holocaust because I always found that to be an interesting period of time. Its cool seeing the main character risk her just to steal books away from the evil Nazis. The only thing I don't really care for the book is the length of it and the pointless awkward metaphors/similes it has. Anyone who is interested in WWII or the Holocaust should definitely read this book. Also people who are into to historical dramas would love this  too. I give it 4/5 Stars!
