Part 8

"Dominoes and Darkness"- Rudy's sisters were playing dominoes as the Gestapo were talking to Barbara and Alex Steiner, Rudy's parents.
"The Thought of Rudy Naked"- Rudy had to be examined thoroughly so they made him strip all his clothes. Rudy ended up telling Liesel even though we know he really didn't want to and Liesel couldn't stop picturing it.
"Punishment"- Hans didn't get punished like he thought he was going to but instead his punishment was him sent to war. Alex Steiner, Rudy's father, also got sent to war.
"The Promise Keeper's Wife"- This was a rather long chapter. Rudy and Liesel's fathers leaving left a big hole in the town of Molching. Rudy and Liesel were both upset and angry and frustrated that they had to leave. They didn't know what to do. It was just hard on everyone.
"The Collector"- This chapter was about the job Hans had to do while in Russia during the war. He was part of the LSE also known as Luftwaffe Sonderinheit- Air Raid Special Unit or just to keep it simple...Dead Body Collector.
"The Bread Eaters"- There was a parade of Jews coming through Molching again so Rudy took 6 pieces of bread and threw them on the street as the Jews were coming through.
"The Hidden Sketchbook"- Before Max Vandenburg left, he made Liesel a book. He told her he made it but she was to take it only if she was ready. Rosa felt she was ready so she gave her the book. The book made her realize where Max was and everything was going to be okay.
"The Anarchist's Suit Collection"- I didn't understand the connection with the title and the plot of this chapter. I did get out of it though, that Liesel gave Rudy a suit for Christmas but I'm not quite sure.

There was a lot of power in this part I would say because the power of war was very clear.
