Q. What made you chose the book and did it deliver?
When I initially looked at the book list Night by Elie Wiesel caught my eye. It was one of the few I'd heard of and I'd also heard about it from a friend. My friend told me that Night is what caused her to lose her faith, because if there was a God he wouldn't have let something like that happen. So with that ever so inspiring and highly uplifting recommendation I went and got the book.
It was very depressing, from the first page onward people were dying. In the first selection it was his mother and siblings who were chosen, along with many other people from his town. Unlike my friend who'd told me about it, it didn't cause me to lose stop believing in God. It was mire like I questioned not only God but the whole world. If you really think about the multitude of people who were killed, you can see how truly horrible it was. It was a very good book and I recommend it, but it's not a light read, and it really makes you think.
