1. It's a very well-written book.

2. The plot is good.

3. The narrator.

I don't know I'm not good at this can someone help me?

I LOVED that book. *SORT OF SPOILER AHEAD!* It was the only book that made me cry, and really the only book which I cried when I reread it. I thought it was one of the best books I had read all year.

YES!!! I read it and LOVED it. I also went and saw the movie. It is FANTASTIC! It parallels the book pretty well, and it was really moving!

I loved this book. I cried both times I read it. It's just fantastic, undescribable really. Sadly, I haven't actually read it in English but I bought a copy so I plan to do that soon. I'm also waiting for the original version of the movie (English, not dubbed) to come out here... 

@Me- I think people like it for different reasons. I personally liked it because it was just like nothing I had ever read. It's told by death and Markus Zusak has the most interesting descriptions. The storyline was also fantastic and the book itself is heartbreaking.

OH MY GOSH, I LOVE THAT BOOK AHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!! I know that it is a good book because the ending made me cry (which almost never happens) and because I read it in aproxamitly three hours. I love how it's narrated by Death. I also love the pictures drawn by Max. I don't know why, but the picture of Hitler as a conductor made me laugh. :D
