Rating:  Summary: English 12 Review: I liked the book because, it told the truth about what the Jews had to go through, but I didn't like where they didn't say what the Jews did after the camps. My most memorable part was when Elie had that French girl talk to him and nobody else new other languages. I think Elie's reason for publishing this book is to show what the Jews had to go through.

Rating:  Summary: Eye Opener Review: I really liked the way that Elie used his child eyes to write this book. It showed the times and trials of children of the Holocaust. The things I did not like about the book are not really what I did not like, they are things that are impossible to imagine any human going through. The book was very gory and described in detail every incident. Since this is a true story I would not change anyhing, everyone should know how terrible tyrants can be, and what goes on in our world that we think cannot happen. In my opinion, Elie's purpose for publishing this book was to educate everyone about the terrors of the Holocaust. How strong the human spirit is, and how far the will to live extends. My most memorable part of the book was when Elie's father died. This was a very emotional time and Elie was ready for it to come, he wanted his father to move on to a better place, and Elie had no tears left.
Rating:  Summary: night review Review: I thought the book was very informative and realistic to what had happened during the Holocaust.What I did not like about the book was that it was way to short and I wanted to read more on that subject.If I were to write the book I would of made it longer.I think that Elie's purpose for writing the book was to inform the public on what went on, as far as the abuse and killing that the Germans did.My most memorable part of the book was when they were first at the camp and he and his father were seperated from his mother and sister and he said that was the last time I would've ever seen them that was very sad to me.
Rating:  Summary: Night Review - English 12 Review: I liked the detailing and the real experiences in this book. I like how factual everything was even though it made me realize how horrid the Holocaust really was. It took hearing one person's real life experience to make me realize how much bad stuff really happened. I disliked the truth in a way I guess. I didn't like the fact that what I was reading was true. It was a well written book but such a sad story. I wouldn't change anything about this book.I think Elie's purpose for writing this book was to educate everyone about the Holocaust. I think he wanted people to know the true experiences of the Jews. The most memorable part of the book for me was when Elie's father died, and Elie didn't cry. It really made me sad for him. It's not that his father's death didn't make him want to cry, but that he had no tears left to cry for him.

Rating:  Summary: English 12 Review: I think that the book was good in showing how the Jews had to go through a lot but they should have said more stuff about people in the book after they left the camps.
Rating:  Summary: yea Review: I liked the way the book was written. Elie told his personal story making it all very real and intriguing. It was easy to read and the story kept my attention. Elie used details to keep the readers interested. Everybody knows something about the Holocaust, but to read a personal story with all the discription that Elie used pulls at the readers emotions and makes it all the more real. There really wasn't much I disliked about the book. And I definately wouldn't change anything about it, because it was written the way Elie saw things, and you can't change the way someone feels about something. I think Elie published this book to help people understand the Holocaust. I never really understood how much these people went throught until I read his book. The thing I will remember most about this book isn't really a certain part of the book, but just in general how unhuman these people were treated. No human being should ever be treated the way they were, they were treated worse than animals. I really can't even imagine the kind of person that could have no feelings or emotions to be able to treat a person so awful. "Night" was a good book that everyone should read to try and come closer to an understanding of what the Jews endured.
Rating:  Summary: Randi Review: I thought that this was a great book. The book was very discriptive and explained in good detail. This book touches ones emotions and shows how much the Jews had to go through and who they had to deal with. The stories and the detail also help to prove that the Holocaust did really happen. I did not fully understand how awful the German soldiers were and how mistreated the Jews were until I read ths book. Night really makes you think and really makes you appreciate what you have and to never take it for granted because at any moment it could be gone. There is a lot of evil in this world and this book proves that. This book also makes me proud to live in the United States and it makes me proud to be free. There was not much that I disliked about the book, this was a book that I did not want to put down. There isn't anything really that you could change about this book, it came from this mans own experience and he just wrote what he saw. Ellie wants to make known of what he and his family and friends had to go through. Many people believe that the Holocaust did not happen and Ellie just wants to prove that it did. My most memorable part was the part when his father died, to know how much he loved his father in the beginning and the fact that he had been through so much that ge couldn't even cry. That showed me what he went through and how much shock he was in.
Rating:  Summary: The Masacre Review: I really enjoyed this book. I liked how Elie Weisel was so descriptive with his true story about the Holocaust. This book gave me a realistic image of what the Jews went through in their struggle for survival. This book changed my perspective on this cruel period in time. Elie dragged out some of the stories in this book. I understand he was trying to paint a mental picture in his readers heads but some parts were quit lengthy. There were parts that got a little boring. I would minimize some of his stories if it were up to me. The thing that really disturbed me was that he said he would sleep while he was running. I do not like that at all. There is no way that could happen. Elie was trying to let the public know that this awful event did indeed happen. He was letting everyone know what he lived through. I believe this book was some kind of tribute to those who lost their lives there. My most memorable part is when Elie was in the Hospital bed. It is amazing that he felt blessed to be laying there with those white sheets. He was more then happy to be in the hospital with a gimp foot because there was no role call. It really makes you think how bad it must have been.
