The Book Thief

Fast-paced, powerful, gripping and so beautifully written. I could relate to it a lot, particularly in the context of how I feel about certain ideas these days. On many levels, the narrative of the human condition described in the book can be seen all over the world today as well. I know there are many books about the holocaust but this was my first read on the topic and I really enjoyed it.
Wondering if the movie does justice to the fine story telling.
