Book Thief 3
I think the scene that impacted me the most was when Liesel saw Max in the line marching to the Death Camp. I could relate with her and it was terrible waiting to see if Max would actually be in the line. Half of me wanted him to be there so that him and Liesel could see eachother again, but the other half of me wanted him to not be there simply because he would be going to a Death Camp. I like this sentence: "It was how the face was acting-also studying the crowd." This goes to show how much BOTH Liesel and Max wanted to see eachother again. Once they reach eachother in the crowded line, they briefly talk. Although they are few words, they mean alot. Liesel also quotes the book that Max wrote for her. She says "Is it really you? Is it from your cheek that I took the seed?" This scene also shows the closeness that people can have. Even closeness between a Jew and a German. They display desperation as they try and fight off the soldiers trying to rip them apart. When Zusak writes "A great day to die. A great day to die, like this." it shows that no matter what happens, Liesel and Max will always be together and they will withstand all disasters.
