If you are planned to read this book, or have not read the ending before; you probably would not want to read this blog, because I might tell you what happens at the end.
I just finished The Book Thief; the ending was pretty good. Near the end, when the Allies bombed Himmel Street (the street they live on), many people died. Liesel watched her neighbors die, her friends die, and her family die. Liesel survived the bomb, but everyone she cared about has died, and her life has been changed again.

The Book Thief
Liesel went to look for Max on August 1943. When he saw Liesel, he was really surprised. "'I can't believe...' The words dripped from Max Vandenburg's mouth." Liesel looked at the Jews, they were all really skinny, because of working a lot and starvation.
A soldier saw her, and told her to leave. "'Hey!' he called in. He pointed with his whip. 'Hey, girl, what are you doing? Get out of there.'" But Liesel did not leave. The soldier started whipping Max until he fell to the ground. Then, the soldier started whipping Liesel.

The Book Thief
"Certainly, war meant dying, but it always shifted the ground beneath a person's feet when it was someone who had once lived and breathed in close proximity." Micheal Holtzapfel's brother died because of war. Micheal was in a building used as a hospital with his brother when he died. They were in the hospital for three days; from when his brother was sent in the hospital to his brother's death. "'I was in one of the buildings we used for a hospital when they brought him in. It was a before I was coming home. I spent three days of that week sitting with him before he died...'" I think Micheal felt really bad when he was in the hospital because he watched his brother dying , but couldn't do anything.
