Summary: Downfall of the Jews
Review: The novel Night by Elie Wiesel was a great book. The book dealt with Hitler, hating the Jews. This is a true story about a boy who went through the Holocaust. This novel describes the pain and suffering the Jews went through.
This book is recommended by us to learn facts about how the Germans critically decreased the population of the Jews in the concentration camps. This book will inspire you greatly to treat others with the same respect you would want.
If you read this book and think it is good try the other recommended books. The books are written as a trilogy, Dawn, and The Accident. These books are all written by Elie Wiesel himself. He is a great author and actually experienced the horror of the Holocaust.

Summary: ?Why Jews Suffered?
Review: The novel Night by Elie Wiesel inspired our freshmen class. The content of the book was based on a true story. It was a story that went into great detail on what went on and what millions of Jews went through. The story dealt with the suffering Jewish men, women, and children endured. Elie and his father went through many concentration camps through his teenage years. He dealt with disease, death, starvation, and hard labor work. I liked this book becasue it shows how cruel people are, and what went on to the millions of innocent Jewish people.

Summary: Triumphes of night
Review: This book tells a true story of a fifteen year old boy named Elie in a concentration camp. It explains his triumphes over adversity for a year and a half from camp to camp. The impeccable detail made you feel as if you were there living his life. I liked this book because it was a bit of history filled with detail of everyday life in concentration camps. This book was never boring at it's worst moments. I never wanted to put it down and stop reading!

Summary: A Night to Remember!
Review: Night by Elie Wiesel overall was a good book. It kept you on the edge of your seat wondering if they would make it. The mix of horror and relief makes you think of how the Holocaust really was. Elie describes all the troubles him and his father have throughout the concentration camps. He expresses the will to survive fighting to stay with a family member. Elie poured all of his feelings into this novel. If you are not into the Holocaust, this is still a good book to read because it gives you alot of information. You will be amazed and shocked at how people were treated during the Holocaust. This is a rapidly changing plot that people have come to love.

Summary: BOTTOMLESS
Review: I always try to read the books that mean something to my children; it seems like a great way to share their lives with them, and to get to know who they are. When one of my daughters was 15, she decided to read this book. I went to tuck her in one night, and when I walked into her room, she raised her eyes from this book and my stomach dropped to my feet. Her eyes were wide, and they seemed absolutely bottomless. I sat by her and hugged her very hard, and she started trying to talking about the book, but she could scarcely find words. I bought my own copy so I could read it alongside her, and I began to understand that bottomless look in her eyes. This is such a powerful book--one that will furrow your brow, purse your lips, clench your stomach, and lead you to think about really big questions. Even now, 2 years after having read this book, I get a slow chill down my back when I glance at the cover. It's not a light-hearted book. It's not one to read while eating snacks and whiling away a little time. This is a book to ponder, to consume slowly, because it will make you think about yourself and other people in this world. The clarity and courage of Wiesel's writing will take your breath away. You need a bit of strength to be able to finish it; my daughter was extremely mature at 15 and, with a lot of talking and help, was able to absorb and digest the story and its meanings. I truly and deeply appreciate this book; it's a funny kind of book to "love," because it covers such incredibly horrifying events, but I do love it and Wiesel for writing it. If you have someone to talk with, this is a great book to read and discuss--and I'd bet my bottom dollar that you'll want to talk about it after you read it. It's a book you'll always remember, and it will leave a mark on you.

Summary: Good, Yet Easy Reading
Review: If your looking for a good book that will keep you reading, this book is just what your looking for. It tells about all the horrible things that happend to the Jews back in the days of the Holocaust. It's very graphic, so if your not a person that likes gore then I wouldn't recommend this book to you. This book contains a lot of really good information. I would recommend this book to anyone that wants to learn more about the Holocaust.

Summary: Night
Review: I thought the book Night written by Elie Wiesel is a great book for people who are interested in history. I think Weisel did a great job describing what the average Jewish went through in the German concentration camps. The book is written from a childs perspective with an adult point of view. If you have a weak stomach you probably shouldn't read the book because Wiesel goes into great detail descibing the horrers he went through. OverallNight is a good thats worth reading.

Summary: Excellent Book, Excellent Author
Review: This is a very inspiring book for many reasons. I read this book in high school because it was required, however I bought the trilogy (The Night Trilogy: Night, Dawn, the Accident) because I loved Night. The fact that this is a TRUE story puts a whole new twist on the topic. The Holocaust can teach us all a valuable lesson and humble us in many ways. One shouldn't judge the author on the content of the book because it is based on fact. I think Elie narrated the incident fabulously. He tells the story as he remembers, leaving out no detail. The realities are hard to stomach sometimes, but such is Life. If we isolate ourselves from the difficulties in Life, we won't be living up to our full potential. This book is a great example of how hard Life is and how there is hope in all situations. I appreciate the blatant truth that Elie poured into this novel. Anyone that can appreciate the world and all its imperfections should read this wonderful book. Way to go Elie, your Spirit lives on . . .
