    The Book Thief is popular this week! With good reason to be as well. It has got such great characters. I keep meaning to read The Replacement but I'm yet to get around to it!

    I picked a different book by the author of Book Thief. In both cases, it's the characters, I think, that drives the story.

    Here's my Best Character-Driven Novels!

Naomi’s methodical search takes her deep into the icy, mysterious forest in the Pacific Northwest, and into her own fragmented past. She understands children like Madison because once upon a time, she was a lost girl too.
