Chapter 1: A Girl Made of Darkness Death describes Liesel as “a girl made of darkness,” full of “anger and dark hatred,” caused by Hitler and the separation from her mother.

She may treat Liesel harshly at times but that is just her way of expressing love. This “cold” personality of Rosa is an act to protect herself from getting hurt and losing those she love deeply, especially after losing one of her children at war.

In The Book Thief, Death finds Liesel’s life fascinating due to her seemingly unique ability to overcome hardship and continue to live a life of joy despite the significant personal losses that she suffers during the war.
