Rudy and Liesel are at it again! In "The Anarchist's Suit Collection", Liesel and Rudy steal from a place where they haven't stolen before - Rudy's dad's shop. This was around Christmas 1942. With the lack of fathers on both sides, they were able to steal from Rudy' father's shop. After some looking around for some presents for Rudy, Liesel came upon a navy blue suit, about Rudy's size. This was Rudy's Christmas gift. I found this to be very useful in character development, especially when you look at the beginning of the book until now. At the beginning of the book, Liesel showed evasive behavior towards Rudy, and now she is willing to help him take things from his father's shop as a gift.
"The Next Temptation" was about Liesel stealing books from the mayor's library again. This time, after deciding on a book, The Last Human Stranger, Liesel was on her way out as the mayor's wife entered the library. After exchanging awkward greetings, they discussed shortly about what the library was. It turns out that this was where Ilsa used to read to her son, before he died. This also was a major point in character development for Ilsa, because, compared to the earlier parts of the book, Ilsa was very quiet, even detached. Now, it seems that Ilsa is much more confident, and is willing to be friendly to Liesel even after what happened.
