    I really liked it. It was different that it was narrated by Death, but it was funny that Death made comments about death. If that makes sense.

    OMIGOSH. I think this is the best book out of all of the ones I have read thus far. Why? Well, it deals with a girl living in WWII, and I always like reading books relating to that topic. Also, the ending was so sad, yet descriptive and flowed nicely. Plus, I loved the humor in the commments by Death (the narrator). Read the book to get what I mean, because it's worth it! Tres bien!

    ***.5 out of ****

    I loved this book. My favorite part was that it was narrorated by death. That was an interesting twist. It was a fascinating story of what WWII was like, and the vantage point is absolutely sublime. incredible.

    This was an awesome book. The beggining was sort of confusing, but the rest was really, really great.
