All But My Life so far is a very good book. Even though it is a good boook, it is also very sad. There are many diffrent events that stuck out to me. One event is when Gerda's brother was leaving. I could imagine how she felt the day he left. Throughout the book she explains how close her an her brother was. Therefore i understand how she may feel with him notbeing there an having that constant thought of not seeing him again. Another event is when Gerda explain the thought of her wanting to commit suicide. She also explains how another family decided to all commite suicide as a group, an how she wished he family could do the same. When i read that part of the book i felt very bad for her. I thought about how bad your life could be or seem to want to commite suicide. Another part of the book that i didnt understand was when she watched her neighbors greet the Nazis as they where invading Bielitz. Also i thought that she was a little fourtante to have had her dad teach her an her friends. I like how no matter what they continued to be a family an made the best by still trying to learn.
