Summary: This book touches your heart
Review: I am an 8th grader from Pennsylvania and we are required to read this book for our Language class. This book really touchs your heart and opens your mind to what the Nazi's did to those poor people. It is just terrible that human beings could do that to other humans. I think everyone should read this book. Elie did a great job of writing this book about murder and the will to survive!

Summary: astounding!
Review: This book is the most amazing, captivating book I have EVER read. I have read it countless times, since seventh grade when I first studied the Holocaust in school. Since that time I have read the book three other times, for classes in high school and college. I have also read the book by my own choice many other times. I do believe that this book should be required for any and all high school students. Once you finish reading this book, you will never look at life, the human race or history in the same light again. I recommend this book the most for those people who claim that the Holocaust never happened. This book will change your mind.

Summary: A great book showing different ideas of life during WWII
Review: Night is an extremely well written book. I feel that I liked it so much because it gave me a new and different look on how people were treated in the concentration camps during the holocaust. I couldn't believe the things that the Jewish people in the camps were forced to do, see, believe, and feel. The relationship between Elie and his father is a very different yet realistic one. During the middle of the book you start to feel that Elie's role to care for and help his father. But towards the end you see how he gradually understands that there is no more he can do for his father, and that he must use all of his strength to save himself. Also, Elie doesn't want to be like the other boy, who abandoned his father, the Rabbi, trying to make it so he doesn't have to care for him. I also enjoyed this book because it talked about a question that I had always wondered. What did the people think of god when they were in the concentration camp? The story tells that Elie gives up on god but yet, he still says the prayer for the dead, and during Yom Kippur, he prays as well. Others felt god was testing everyone just as he had done in Egypt before. Overall, I feel that this was a great book and I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who wants to learn about a different perspective of the Holocaust.

Summary: A tragic story of a young boy in a concentration camp
Review: This is a very well written story. It was written by a man who was once a young teenager in a concentration in Auschwitz, Buna, and Buchenwald. It is a story that tells what really went on in those concentration camps during the holocaust. Elie and his father were both transported from the ghetto to Auschwitz, along with his mother and sisters who were never seen again after the point of split up when they got off the train. This book will really get to you, and it is a little hard to understand but, htis is a must read book. I recomend reading this book just so that people can really understand what it was like and the horrible things that went on in the concentration camps. Hitler tried to say that being a Jew was a race, something that he could not prove. He tried to prove it though. So try to get your hands on this book becasue it is a must read and it is a really good bok!

Summary: Should be required reading for all of humanity
Review: Simply put, this is the most powerful book I have ever read. I am fairly desensitized to violence and have been to the Holocaust museum, so I didn't think that this little skinny book would get to me. It did. I had to read it for English, and I finished it in one night. As much as I wanted to put it down because it was so depressing, I couldn't. The writing is not fancy, but it's content conveys the raw emotions. I recommend this book to EVERYONE.
