Rating: 4 stars
Summary: It was eye-opening
Review: I recently read this book for my honors english class. The scenes that it described and foretold were horrifying and sickening. It made me disgusted and sympathetic at the same time. I think it was, despite the gruesome content, a great literary work. Before anyone makes a judgement of someone for no reason, they should read this book. The horrors of the Nazi regime are unbelievable.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Night
Review: Night is a reality book. Its very and impacting. It showed me as a fifteen-year-old girl that not everyones life is a walk in the park. People suffer and experience things that are immoral and damaging.Night showed me a new prespective to the Holocaust.Night was easy to comprehend and exciting. You always want to know where they will be sent next and how they will be treated.Most of the time I dont get into books and I dont like to read. I read Night in two days after school and it was very appealing to me.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Night
Review: I am a high school student in the 10th grade. I don't particularly like to read, but I was assigned the book, and with my average, I had no choice but to read it. At the very beginning, the reading was slow and dull, but as the book went on, it really grabbed my attention. The mental pictures that the author painted were hard to accept as events that some humans actually lived through such torturous times. Anyone who doesn't believe that The Holocaust actually happened, needs to read this book because there is no way that someone could just make all this stuff up. I thourgholy enjoyed this book, and I think that it should be added to the required reading curriculum of most, if not all, schools.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: The Night
Review: THis was an editorial review about the book Night, by Elie Wiesel. It is about his own experience in Birkenau, Auschwitz that it's generally and not inaccurately read as an autobiography. The protagonist in the story is a piou teenager racked with guilt at having survived the genocidal that consumed his family. It said that there were no easy answers in this harrowing book. It marks the crucial first steps in Wiesel's lifelong project to bear witness for those who died.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Wow!!! A Crowd Pleaser
Review: I have just got done reading "Night" by Elie Wiesel. It was a very good book. I enjoyed this book so much I couldn't put it down. The book gives people a real description of how the Holocaust was, and how the Germans treated the Jews. It is a sad book. The Germans did so many mean things to the Jews. I felt that Elie Weisel did a great job on telling this story and what it was like when the Germans took over; put the Jews on trains, and at the concentration camps. If I was in his position, I don't know if I could let all those people know what happened to him. I would try and forget about it even though you couldn't forget about something like that. I would recommend this book to anyone.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Outstanding
Review: This book is masterfully written, making it, quite rightfully, emotionally draining to read. This is certainly the most upsetting book I have ever read, but it is that very aspect that makes it a must-read.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: the greatest horror of the world begins
Review: just when you thought humanity could be peaceful... .... i will never forgive the Nazis for introducing their way into the world... it continues today. down with fascism in all its forms!!!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Excellent
Review: I found this book very enlightening. I really appreciated the personal and emotional impact of what the author was experiencing. Part of what makes this book so captivating, is that Wiesel doesn't just list all of the attrocities that he experienced. Rather, he focuses mainly on the physical and emotional impact of living in a concetration camp. Wiesel takes the reader through a journey that starts with his steadfast belief, then through his loss of faith and lastly to his eventual dispair. Finally, his inner struggle concerning his father is very revealing of the human condition when pushed beyond all limits.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Open Your Eyes to this "Night"
Review: I read some chapters of this book when I was in Hebrew school. I was not even 12 then. I am forever haunted by the portion of how Mr. Wiesel described how he saw his sister being lead away with their mother and how he never saw her again.

I come here to find marvolous reviews that this book deserves. But my heart breaks at the how many of these reviews complain about this story, discredit this story. People have reviewed this book saying that what happened to 11,000,000 people (Jews, Catholics, homosexuals, invalids, men, women, children, and infants) never exited. That it was a lie.

11,000,000 people were murdered.

11,000,000 innocent lives.

Try to explain to me how 11,000,000 people upped and vanished.

Try to explain what Mr. Wiesel saw when he was just a young boy.

This book is gruesome and graphic because what happened to him and to the rest of the 11,000,000 lives that were snuffed out was gruesome.

People say that Anne Frank's story is better. But we only hear of her life in hiding. We never hear of the torture she went through in that concentration camp. How she died, a mere month before freedom came.

Elie Wiesel survived and he tells this story so we cannot forget. So we cannot deny. That man can be a hideous and wretched creature. That people will throw babies into the air and shoot them. There are such people in this world.

Open your eyes to this.
