I am the Messenger
Markus Zusak
"Interesting premise, moved along at a decent pace." ~ goodreads.com
"Through this enchanting, abnormal storyline, Zusak clearly reveals a theme many of us know, but few embrace. That is, anyone (not just the richest, most beautiful or successful people) can perform simple deeds to make the world a better place." ~ Emelie Sanders, pioneerwoman.com
