Yes bro same here. I have ( had ) to read the novel and write summary but i could not finish it and have to write from this video. So a heartly thanks to Minute Book Reports : )
It’s actually sad that many people in the comment said that this video saved their summer and not realizing that they’re missing out one of the greatest book i ever read
For me personally, this story is about love and how it manifests over time and connections. How inseparable and unending it is, even after death. And how even though people may not be blood related, they are still family. Honestly, this is one of my favorite books of all time, up there with The Giver.
The purpose of books change throughout this story. In the beginning, books are about knowledge and a means to enter the world through reading (since she can't read). Books later become a bonding tool between the girl and the mayor's wife. Then, books become the tool for revenge as the girl is mad at the mayor's wife. And at the end, books become a means of escape (writing in her book literally saves her life).
I read the book and at first I became confused then later it started to make sense.. Your summary was the best one I found since it explains so much in such a little report. I'm definitely going to subscribe!
extra bits of information in case you are wondering: - why did Hans Hubermann start playing the accordian? -> During world war I, his war friend that saved his life and who we later find out is Max's father, taught him to play the accordian. - the ending -> Liesel is the only survivor as all of the people, including the Hubermann's and Rudy are killed when the town gets bombed one night. Then, she is raised by the mayor and his wife and grows up to have a family of her own in the end. - death as the narrator of the story -> is what defines the characters of the book and readers are introduced to them through series of events that involve death and suffering. -> personification of death raises the message to all from an omnipresent perspective, that all of us must face death and we are all on its schedule. also reminds readers about how we should choose kindness over cruelty in all times :)
To everyone talking about you saving their lives with their book reports: If you like reading at all you will love this book. It's amazing. Also lucky you I have really boring books at school if I had this one I'd be ecstatic lol. This one's really something else so when you find the time try to read it ❤️
Great book, amazing book. Thing is, I had no time to finish this book for my class, and this summary came in clutch for tests. I recommend anyone with time of their hands to read this book in full. It is a great story. 9/10
Books can also be more human-like, as in all humans are like books that can be opened, left untouched, stolen, or destroyed. In essence, Death is the Book Thief in this scenario and does whatever it wants, as we are the books.
It took me almost 3.5 months to complete this book because of tight schedule. Initially, I did not understand the theme of the book, but as I progressed I began empathizing with Liesel.... Her inability to read, her nightmares, Papa's determination to teach her, and the moments with Rudy are also remarkable. Then came an instance when I started loving the characters, especially Rudy and Max. I could feel the pain that Max was going through. I was anticipating that in end Liesel would die with everyone since death mentions her multiple times but she is the only survivor on Himmel Street. The moment Liesel comes face to face with Rudy's body she kisses him finally and later confesses it to Alex Steiner, it shows how much she cares about him throughout the story. I am happy that Book Thief finally manages to reunite with Max but I feel sorry for her as she loses her entire world on the night of the bombing. I have really been touched by the Mayor's wife and Rudy throughout the story. A Great Work by Marcus Zuzak, I know life wouldn't be the same for anyone who reads this masterpiece.
my friend lent the book to me and it took me about the same amount of time to get through it. it felt too narrative heavy initially, but i'm glad i didn't give up on it. plus, i grew to enjoy the writing style. definitely worth reading.
I believe it is because it is told from death's pov and not of Liesel's. This is just a daily occurrence for him unlike being the "End of the world" for Liesel.
I read it a few months ago and I thought the same. Now we had a school assignment to write a report about a book and I chose to reread this one. Just to tell you, I am crying soo hard right now, as I finished reading the book a few minutes ago. I think that is because when I started reading, I already knew that everyone would be dead, so I noticed every small action they had, and the relationship Liseil had with them, so when I reached the end, I could understand exactly how Lieseil felt at that moment and It was heartbreaking. I really recommend rereading this! And I think this was the perfect choice for my assignment, just that it is a little too long ( about 600 pages )
What is the role of "stealing" in the history of the book? I mean, the book is called "The Book Thief". So, is there any consequences of this action on the characters or maybe it is an symbology about the power of death, which can take anyone at any time without warning?
Personally for me, The story is about words, power of words in the face of oppression and war. As the story unfolds, words become the means of resistance towards nazi, where max uses words to depict the resistance in the basement. also the words take a different shape when used by the nazi where the hate speech fuels the war. Liesel's love for reading which brings her comfort and hope. And Hans and liesel bond over the words.
This is one of my all time favorite books. I think that the way it is written is superior to almost every other book I've ever read. I really like your videos! Hugs from Sweden! :)
+Minute Book Reports You have to see the movie. It's a really good adaptation. I also have the movie on Blu-ray. And by the way all your videos are so wonderful.
i know my attention span and it knows me, i can't finish the book for the life of me and i'm doing it this year for school so thank you so much for the explanation 😭
Thank you so much for this, i read the book a while back, but i dont really remember it. Going to buy the book soon and read it again. I love how you summarise these books in little characters :D Thanks again so much!!!!!!!!!! earning a sub and a like!!! :)
thxsm!!!! i already read it but it makes no sense to me and it was almost a year ago i have to read it for my freshman honors class summer reading. i have to take a quiz on it during the first week of school which is bs! so thanks it makes more sense now and i can remember it a little more!!
That's such a good analogy, since we live and create our own histories. We may live and learn the experiences of our parents and even our grandparents. But it's kinda hard to know the life of ours great-grandfathers, since the distant connection makes their memories fade away. Thanks minutedrlog! (sorry about my english)
Dude I totally forgot, I read this book in 8th grade. Great read. Had to check it out because I saw the movie on Disney plus and thought I knew that from somewhere. That was 5 years ago.
+HBurks10 If you're referring to the movie then you're right. But based on the story line and the sketches that Minute Book Reports showed it was based on the actual book that Markus Zusak wrote.
nice video! im studying this for a level english and was wondering is there any key differences between the book and the film interpretation? not just plot but are any aspects more focused on?
Is the book, book thief and movie book thief almost the same, what’s the difference?? Thanks to anyone who replies! Can I just watch the movie for my summer reading book assignment?
Tbh there's a lot of difference first, the book offers a unique writing style and of course more info.. Some scenes like the blank book was given to liesel by different characters. Deaths introduction is significant yet, unable to be executed in the films
By the way..this won’t help you in school. Listen to an audiobook if you hate reading. THIS ISNT ENOUGH DETAIL. TEACHERS WILL KNOW YOU DIDNT READ. Please folks..do your work! This missed a major storyline! This is a great video for refreshing your memory, though.
Let me guess. You have some kind of a school- related assignment related to the book (test, essay, project, etc) and you’re stressing out Bc you procrastinated.
The Book Thief will be appreciated for the boldness of Mr. Zusak, also on display in his previous, I am the Messenger. It will be widely read and admired because it tells a story in which books become treasures.

Oof he says Lisa at 3:10 it shooked me
My crush recommend this book and I haven’t bothered picking it up once over break and school starts again tomorrow, thank you.
This is going to help me so much with my summer assignment! Thx!
This book was amazing. My favorite thus far. But the death of all of Leisel's friends was a little too abrupt for me. It didn't have much emotion.
I believe it is because it is told from death's pov and not of Liesel's. This is just a daily occurrence for him unlike being the "End of the world" for Liesel.
@@lily_thecongo9695 when death talks about rudy when he dies tho. I literally shattered

I mean, the book is called "The Book Thief". So, is there any consequences of this action on the characters or maybe it is an symbology about the power of death, which can take anyone at any time without warning?
Well see comment from 7 years ago I thought it was because of her nature to learn to read and write and also the narrator as they tell someone’s story
My absolute favorite book! Excellent job.

Do you have any thoughts on deaths last line in the story about how he is haunted by humans
You have some real talent keep her gon
