Summary: Shedding Light on Night
Review: For a long time people denied the fact that the Hollocaust ever existed, simply because they couldn't bear the fact that something so terrible could ever happen. The shocking truth comes out loud and clear in Elie Weisel's Night(his account of what happened in the Holocaust from a young teen boy's perspective).
Elie weisel gives his readers a shocking visual of cruelty at its worst. A cruelty that most people couldn't imagine if they tried. For example, Weisel explains families being separated on arrival and how those unable to work were murdered inhumanely.
I would reccomend this novel to anyone with a strong stomache (not little children). There's a lot of violence and children might not grasp the importance of the questioning of God by Elie to this novel.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Where Are We??
Review: In our Freshman Engilsh class we were assigned to read the book Night by Elie Wiesel. When we began to read Night it seemed to be very dragged on, but with in about 15 pages it started to get more intresting. Soon after that we could not take our eyes away from the book. We were so into the book that none of us wanted to put it down. This book gave us a vivid feeling of how the Jews felt while going through the Holocaust. The episode that captured our atttention the most was when the Jews where getting beaten. Jews felt unhuman, dogs were treated better than them. We rate this book a 5 because it was such a good book and we would love to read the sequals to Night by Elie Wiesel.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Not Dawn But Night
Review: The novel titled Night by Elie Wiesel is a phenominal autobiography. This novel about Elie gave us the full experience on what it was like to be in the Holocaust. To read about the struggle and survival of these innocent people, made us realize how fortunate we really are. The Jewish community went through a period of torture, pain and starvation. Being put into the cattle cars, witnessing people getting out into cremetories, running for many miles, working from dusk until dawn and not having the proper nutrition are only some of the things they went through.
We like this book because it shows how people had a strong will to survive. Their future goals kept them going and they tried to stay alive. Many people strived to keep alive and wouldn't let a small obsticle overcome their goals. Others couldn't adapt to the terrible conditions at the concentration camps. They were very strong inside because they witnessed their loved ones being killed. The book Night was a very emotional novel explaining the horrors of the Holocaust. This will make you think twice before you complain about what you don't or can't have and make you appreciate life itself.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A world's tradgedy
Review: The author Elie Wiesel captures the tragedy of the Holocaust in great detail. The book Night speaks of Elie's childhood as he spends a year in different consentration camps run by the Nazi's. Wiesel illustates the horrible conditions of these camps and the cruelty that takes place inside. I really enjoyed this book because it gives the reader an inside view into one of the worst tragedy's in world history. As we look back this horrible time we reliaze how important life truely is.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: The journal of Elie Wiesel
Review: Night is a good book if you want to learn more about the Holocaust. Everything in the book is true because the author, Elie Wiesel, experienced the Holocaust at the age of 15. Night is like a journal of the experience of Elie's time in the concentration camps. Elie's book really shows what it was like to be a Jewish person at the time of the Holocaust. He was faced with lots of problems and sometimes thought about commiting suicide. I greatly recommend this book for people that want to learn about the Holocaust.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: 5 star report for a 5 star book
Review: I thought that this book was not that bad, in fact it was great. The book Night by Elie Wiesel used great description within the Holocaust era. His detail helped people see in their minds what was going on during that time. There is no doubt in my mind that this is a 5 star book. This book gave us a vivid view of how the Jewish people suffered in the Holocaust. One thing I apriciate after reading this book is my life................

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Downfall of the Jews
Review: The novel Night by Elie Wiesel was a great book. The book dealt with Hitler, hating the Jews. This is a true story about a boy who went through the Holocaust. This novel describes the pain and suffering the Jews went through.
This book is recommended by us to learn facts about how the Germans critically decreased the population of the Jews in the concentration camps. This book will inspire you greatly to treat others with the same respect you would want.
If you read this book and think it is good try the other recommended books. The books are written as a trilogy, Dawn, and The Accident. These books are all written by Elie Wiesel himself. He is a great author and actually experienced the horror of the Holocaust.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: ?Why Jews Suffered?
Review: The novel Night by Elie Wiesel inspired our freshmen class. The content of the book was based on a true story. It was a story that went into great detail on what went on and what millions of Jews went through. The story dealt with the suffering Jewish men, women, and children endured. Elie and his father went through many concentration camps through his teenage years. He dealt with disease, death, starvation, and hard labor work. I liked this book becasue it shows how cruel people are, and what went on to the millions of innocent Jewish people.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Triumphes of night
Review: This book tells a true story of a fifteen year old boy named Elie in a concentration camp. It explains his triumphes over adversity for a year and a half from camp to camp. The impeccable detail made you feel as if you were there living his life. I liked this book because it was a bit of history filled with detail of everyday life in concentration camps. This book was never boring at it's worst moments. I never wanted to put it down and stop reading!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A Night to Remember!
Review: Night by Elie Wiesel overall was a good book. It kept you on the edge of your seat wondering if they would make it. The mix of horror and relief makes you think of how the Holocaust really was. Elie describes all the troubles him and his father have throughout the concentration camps. He expresses the will to survive fighting to stay with a family member. Elie poured all of his feelings into this novel. If you are not into the Holocaust, this is still a good book to read because it gives you alot of information. You will be amazed and shocked at how people were treated during the Holocaust. This is a rapidly changing plot that people have come to love.
