Book Review of The Reader

What a disappointing book. It def. did not live up to its hype. I guess you were supposed to be shocked by the weakness of someone who appeared so strong but isn't that the way things always are? The only reason this book got published is because the main character has the shock value of being a guard in a Nazi prison camp. Other then that, nothing stood out about either character or helped you feel connected to them. Overall, I was so glad when this book ended and i could move on.
