Book Thief Blog

I am having trouble with this horrid thing. The letters are the same color as the background and I cannot see the things. Edit: Not sure why you guys can’t see the posts before yours–maybe it will fix itself later?

Your blog prompt, if you can see it:

Is Death a reliable narrator? Why or why not?

What is the significance of the color yellow (so far, at least)?

Remember that quotes are needed to prove your point is correct. It’s fine if your evidence isn’t from Part 3.

DUE 2/3: 5 PTS

Identify a relationship that develops or changes during Part 3. How and why does it change? What forces influence it?

Remember to RESPOND to another person’s post, but if you feel all the points about a certain relationship have been made, feel free to move on to another.

The clock has been updated to reflect our time zone, so make sure to comment before 12 midnight 2/3!
