We'll be meeting on Thursday, June 4th at 7:30pm at Joy's house to discuss The Book Thief by Markus Zusak. Voting for new books will also end that day at noon and the results will be announced at book group that night. So don't forget to vote!
Here's a summary of The Book Thief (shared from GoodReads)...
HERE IS A SMALL FACT - YOU ARE GOING TO DIE
1939. Nazi Germany. The country is holding its breath. Death has never been busier.
Liesel,
a nine-year-old girl, is living with a foster family on Himmel Street.
Her parents have been taken away to a concentration camp. Liesel steals
books. This is her story and the story of the inhabitants of her street
when the bombs begin to fall.
SOME IMPORTANT INFORMATION - THIS NOVEL IS NARRATED BY DEATH
It's a small story, about:
a girl
an accordionist
some fanatical Germans
a Jewish fist fighter
and quite a lot of thievery.
