I have never been the type of person who enjoys writing, in fact, for most of my life I've hated it. Through the years English has always been my least favorite subject because of my distaste for writing essays. I would always put off starting my essays until the day before, and because of that my grades would suffer.

experience in school, I have had many challenges the biggest one being, english classes. Every other class I had for the most part was pretty smooth but when it came to english it was just like a hurdle to good scores. Nevertheless, it was not that I didn’t like english, it was just a subject that even with my countless attempts I was just not good at.

I decided to analyze the last chapter of Markus Zusak’s The Book Thief, titled The Handover Man (I was hesitant to do so, as writing about the last chapter seemed uninspired and lazy, but this one affected me too much to pass it up). The chapter begins with Death, the narrator, stating that although he has seen some of the greatest and most debilitating events in human history, there are other memories, more personal. He details Liesel’s soul removal, traveling to Sydney where she lived, and makes
