the book thief is really good, but the messenger by marcus zusak is possibly better in my opinion. if you haven’t read it, i think you might like it because it’s set in sydney and just has really normal things disrupted by something slightly other-wordly. i really, really love it.
Thanks Tessa! Will try and check it out.
