I am really enjoying the book so far but it hasn’t gotten to the really horrific events of the holocaust yet.  It crazy to think that this event took place less than 100 years ago and that all those events took place in the holocaust.  All the racism was just so unnecessary and shouldn’t of happen, it just shows you how crazy people really are.  The discription is amazing and I almost feel apart of the book, as if I was really there.  I am surprised to see that Elie was so lucky to have survived the holocaust when the prisoners were so physically and emotionally broken down.  I can’t wait to read the next chapters and follow along in Elie’s story and to see what happens next.  Amazing book so far!!
