Blog Post #4.

Im not even one eighth of the way into the Book Thief and its so utterly confusing. All I understand is that there is the narrator-a male who is following a little girl (wow, sounds creepy) and I don't know if he is a dead spirit or a real person because nobody sees him (at least not so far). And this guy takes dead people's souls and warms them up or something. Right now the mom is taking the little girl and the dead boy to the orphanage. Apparntly, the mom is carrying the dead body of the boy, but I thought it just said that they buried him. Maybe that was the plan crash. AHHH! I better keep reading. But one quote i really liked is: " A Translation: Himmel=Heaven. Whoever named Himmel Street certainly had a healthy sense of irony. Not that it was a living hell. It wasn't. But it sure as hell wasn't heaven, either," (Zusak 26).
