the book NIGHT by Elie Wiesel portrays a young Jewish boy's journey through the Holocaust. From when he gots taken away, to when the book ends, I couldn't put it down (and i'm not the most avid of readers). The fact that his and his father's life was in Elie's hands kept you in suspense from beginning to end. A simple crumb of bread or a drop of water, can determine life or death. After reading this book, i noticed many things i would have taken for granted otherwise. I started to be grateful that i'm alive, and how fragile life really is. NIGHT taught me one of life's most valuable lessons. NIGHT by Elie Wiesel is truly a masterpiece, as it brings you along on his journey through the Holocaust, with death looking upon him.
