Madeline S, Book Thief pages 0-135

So right now I’m reading the Book Thief and I’m only on page 135. I think the book is really good so far, but to me the book doesn’t make a lot of sense. It’s still good though. My favorite character is Hans Hubermann. I think he is the perfect dad for Liesel.  He is so sweet and kind to her when others weren’t. I also like Rosa Hubermann because of how strict she is , but she still loves Liesel. I can’t wait to finish the book.

So I just finished The Maze Runner. I thought it was a great book. The characters all have a backround that’s a mystery. It sort of makes you want to read more. The book has my two favorite genres, mystery and action. During the book, my mind was whirling with questions. I tried to solve the puzzle of the maze also, but it was hard. I can’t believe the answer was right there all along.

I thouht the author did a really good job showing how the gladers were friends but acted  more like brothers to me. It shows how they always got each others back and they can also respect each other. I have so many questions abot the book, like what happened to Gally at the end? Or what happens to Teresa and Thomas? I hope the movie was as good as the book.
