The Book Thief
What a book. At first, I was skeptical: A book narrated by Death? About a barely adolescent girl who steals books? Set in Germany, in WWII? And there's a Jew in the basement? Give me a break. But oh how it all comes together, tragedy piling upon tragedy with the flavor of barren austere whiteness and inevitability and redemption. This one packs an emotional wallop that came from behind and spun me out in flames.
