Okay, so, since I was 18 I have been on the birth control pill for my hormones. I was moody. Agitated. Mean. It helped tremendously. Now that I'm not on it, I've been feeling down. The highs and lows have been draining. I never tied it back to the pill. Now I have to figure out how to control it again. So until I figure it out, ya'll please bare with me. I'm not trying to cry or be mean all the time. If I could control it, I would.
I just recently finished "The Book Thief" by Markus Zusak. I had no idea what this novel was going to be about going into it; all I knew was that our 10th grade English class study it. Right off the bat I noticed that our narrator was not your average Joe. The narrator is death. When I realized this I said to myself, "Oh this is going to be good." The novel is all about the Holocaust and it is shown from a German point of view. Leisel Meminger's mother gives her away to a foster German family. On the trip to this new family, Leisel's brother dies. So right from the start death is there. I'm not going to give you a synopsis of it, because I think you should read it for yourself. Just know that a German family hides a Jew in their basement for a while, and death is around every corner. That last line of the novel really got me though..."I am haunted by humans."
