Summary: Reality and human spirit
Review: I think this book was absolutely amazing. There is such depth in this book, it contains so many issues that Jews had to endure during this tmie of persecution. It makes you think how could people have been so cruel? This book definetly offers an in depth look into the holocoust(sp?) that no teacher can teach

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: the painful truth of the Holocaust
Review: Elie Wiesel clearly and articulately brings the pain and horror of the holocaust to a personal level on which any reader can empathize. A Hungarian Jew living in Romania, Wiesel manages to avoid the holocaust until the final years of the war, at which time he and his family are sent to the camps. Wiesel has the uncanny ability to recreate the unimaginable daily genocide so that the reader is placed in his shoes, seeing the carnage through his eyes. The book is written at a very accessable level, and given the gravity of the subject matter is very short. However its impact is similar to that of being punched in the solarplexis. Highly recommended.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: night
Review: The book night is now one of my favorite books in the whole world. The book is a great book for young adults and adults of any age. Night tells you about what happened in the past for the jews that got caught by the nazi's. It also tells you about the consentration camps that the jews got sent to and how they got treated while they were there. The last thing that the book tells you about is how they got sent to different consentration camps and how many times they got there camps changed and they sometimes had to walk to there different camps which were aproximentaly 3-4 hours away in walking distance. this book is a great book and i hope that you get a chance to read this wonderful and true book about the holocaust.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: An excellent source of truth¿
Review: This book was an eye-opener for me. Elie Wiesel had a way of making me feel like I was actually standing next to him while he was going through all of this. He talked about many of the situations with much depth, but not so much that it made me sick. He gave me enough information so I could still understand the troubles that the people of the camps had. It was nice to see how someone who witnessed this felt. After reading this book I want to learn more about the Holocaust and people's emotions towards it. I would recommend this book to everyone. I am positive that if you pick up this book, you will not want to put it down until the very last page.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Night
Review: After reading the novel, Night, I would have to give it four stars. Five being the best. I really enjoyed the book, but it didn't have me interested from the beginning. The book started off pretty slow and I really didn't get into it until after the first chapter. Once the author started to really get into detail of his life in the concentration camps, and being separated from his family is when it really caught my attention. Not a lot of books keep my attention, but this one was different. Maybe it did because this was a true story. The author did such a good job explaining the horrible things he went through as a child. I couldn't imagine going through the things he went throught. It had to be really hard writing this story but he did such a good job and I reccommend this book to everybody.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: hmmm
Review: Night was one of the best and unique books I have read about the holocaust. It gave the psychological aspects more than just the physical ones which lets the reader understand more of what the people are feeling emotionally. The plot continues to keep you hooked on what's going to happen next through the killings, selections, and departers. From the first page, there was anticipation on what was going to happen to the main character, Ellie, and his family. I would really recommend Night to anyone who is interested in reading about the Holocaust. I can almost guarantee that you'll enjoy it.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Night
Review: Elie Wiesel's book, Night, revealed parts of the Holocaust that only someone who had gone through this horror could describe. He created an atmosphere that was mysterious and new to me. It drew me in to want a more conscious understanding and realization of what really happened. Elie described each camps treatment with great visuality so I could identify what was going on, but did not disgust me to the point to stop reading. This book showed how people act when they are in an extreme situation and that you need to be independent to survive. His words brought out emotions of sadness and helplessness and the question of why it took the world so long to acknowledge and respond to this great massacre of people. The book Night had an enormous impact on me which has made me curious to know more about the Holocaust.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Night
Review: I thought that the book Night was a very informational, understanding resource about what happened in the Holocaust. It was a great book. This book told me things that I would probably would never have found out. I liked how the book was about the author and his real life experience. I would really like to thank the author of the book Night for sharing this information with anyone who reads this book. I think that this book was probably the most interesting book I have read.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A must read
Review: I read the book Night by Elie Wiesel. It is about a young Jewish boy who tells you about his first hand accounts of the terror of the Holocaust. Starting from the ghettos to the concentration camps. The horror that Elie went through is expressed through some emotions and even sometimes the absences of his emotions. Elie is first put through the horror of Auschwitz, seeing people around him dying. Elie starts to question his faith in God. As only a young teenager, Elie is put to the depths of hell and has all of the experience to share because he survived.
This book is a must read if you have any interest at all in the Holocaust or World War II. An account of horror that you will never forget read the book as soon as possible.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: *A Wonderful Book!*
Review: I thought that the book Night was a very good book. The author didn't give many grusome details, but instead talked about the emotional aspect of it. I have read a lot about the holocaust, but this book is one of the best that I have read. It goes into detail about exactly what happened while they were in the concentration camps. I actually felt like I knew Elie, and his family members, and I felt like I was there. I think that the things that happened to Elie, along with the others in the camps, was awful. The Germans treated them horribly, and I don't understand how anyone could torture innocent people. So overall I thought that the book Night was by far one of the best holocaust books ever!
