Summary: Gold mine
Review: After reading Night I have developed a better feel for what the holocaust was like. Although, I find Elie to have wrote on his experiences for the money. According to his experiences throughout the novel I find it tough for someone to write and publish such information. I would recommend reading this novel to learn the truth behind a real holocaust survivor.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Night
Review: Night, a novel by Elie Wiesel, delves into the horror that Jewish people faced during World War II. Although not considered an autobiographical piece of literature, while reading Night, one can actually take an in-depth look at what the author actually went through during his time in the German concentration camps.
This book took me on an emotional roller coaster that felt like it would never stop. From the first word I read, I didn't want to put it down. It contained grotesque detail that you can't find anywhere in history books, which up until now, was where I had found all the facts I knew about the concentration camps and the cold hard truth of what happened in them.
The only thing that I didn't like about this book was the abrupt way that it ended. All in all, even with its abrupt ending, this book was one of my favorites. I have never read a book that has made me feel so much in so litte time.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Inspiration.
Review: Night by Elie Wiesel is a inspirational as well as an informational novel. Elie displays the horrifying truths of the Holocaust through his own expierences. From being seperated from his mother and sister to being moved around from consentration camp to concentration camp, Elie remains strong. His positive influences rub off on his peers keeping them alive. His motavation to live shows off his strong traits not only as a person but as a leader. This book also displays true events that occured durring the Holocaust.
I enjoyed reading this book because I liked the way that there was never a dull moment. There was always an important thing to be said. I had an excellent time reading the book and I would reccommend Night to everyone who likes non-fictional books with non-stop action.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Krista's Review
Review: This magnificant novel tells a horrifying story of a little boy,
Elie Wiesel, who struggled through a few years of his life in several death camps. The book help me open my eyes to see many horrible accounts of life or death situations and murders for the fact of a person's religion. I had always heard about the Holocaust and had even seen shows and movies about the Holocaust, but I did not understand the extent of the Holocaust until I read Night. Reading the novel, I felt as if I was there suffering right along side of Elie as he struggled to stay alive. He was trying to help others as well as help himself, and I felt his pain as I read the novel. It was a very good novel and I believe I would recommend reading it if you have not.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A chilling yet inspirational book
Review: In the book Night by Elie Wiesel, he not only writes of the hardships he went through, he also writes of the strength he gained. I have read many books over the Holocaust and have done many papers over it, but I have never read a book that gave me chills, and this was the first one to do it. I could not put this book down and I think everyone should be required to read it. Elie elaborates on many things in this book and it is very hard to understand what he actually went through, but he made it as clear as possible which made me enjoy this book even more. Even though I didnt want to read about people getting killed or beaten, I wanted to know everything he was saying. I gave this book 5 stars and if I could, I would give it 6.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Too Many Innocent Lost Lives
Review: This novel is about an incident that happened to innocent people. A young boy, Elie, and his father Mr. Wiesel, and his friends and family had to go through Nazi orders and through the different concentration camps. A lot of people lost their lives just trying to survive a day in the camps. I believed this novel was very interesting and taught me more about the Holocaust and what actually went on. I dont understand how somebody could kill innocent people for fun. Food, water, and clothing was something to fight over when you got a chance at it. This novel is very sad but is good to let people realize what happened and how we should be grateful for the things we have today.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Night
Review: I thought that this book was a good book. Although, I thought that this book was like all the other Holocaust books. All the Holocaust stories tell the same thing, about the Jews being beaten and treated badly. Even though I think it was like all the others, I think this was the best one I have read. I would definitely recommend Night to anyone who is studing or just want to read something about the Holocaust.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Night Review
Review: I thought Night by Elie Wiesel was a great book. Once I started reading it, I couldn't put it down. I was anxious to read about what was going to happen next. At times, I felt like I was in Elie's situation trying to survive. It made me think of how unpredictable life can be. One day, Elie was happy with his life and his beliefs in God. The next events in his life was more of a nightmare. People can easily jump to conclusion of what they would do in his situation, but they can't really say anything until they actually have to face it themselves.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: an experience on the other side
Review: NIGHT by ELIE WIESEL was an extrodinary book that contained a story from a heartbroken jew's point of view. The book lets everybody know what the holocaust was all about and how the struggle to survive was the most difficult task of all. Elie went through so many situations that about 99% of people today couldnt have lasted 2 minutes in Elie's shoes. After i read this book i realized how gruesome the holocaust really was. The book will make you ask yourself questions, such as, how were the germans so terribly mean and crucial? How did the Jews that lasted for five years last? What was the point in killing all of those people? If you think that you know about the Holocaust then read this book and really find out what happen during that time period.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Night Review
Review: I think this book was very good. It gave you a personal outlook at the Holocaust from someone who was actually effected by it. I liked this book because of its realism. It gave you a history lesson without sugar coating it. I encourage anyone who wants to learn more about to holocaust to read this book.
