Questions

Hey I’ve been really interested in World War 2 and I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for fiction books that take place during the war. I read Atonement and really liked that. And I also just saw the movie Australia and I really enjoyed that. So anything along those lines, I would really appreciate it. It can take place either in the United States or elsewhere. Thank you!
I do like love stories and I’m particularly fascinated by the nurses and hositals.

Particularly ones involving nurses. can be english, american, etc., novels or online writings. Think Pearl Harbor, Atonement, English Patient type of stuff. I am a sucker for this kind of romance but I am unable to find anything online or in bookstores just searching on my own.

I’m looking for a series of books I read in about 6th grade. They were about the Civil War, and told the story of two young boys, one white and one black, who were friends with one another despite the racial differences and the time period. I believe it was a five book series. I read the books approximately 7 - 8 years back, but I can’t recall their names or author.

Perhaps something to do with “red haired” or “captive” or “slave,” and I believe “series” was included in the general title of each.

Thanks for your help. =)

I’m really into books about the “what if” part of the Cold War, e.g what if the USSR had invaded American. Anybody now any good books?

In 1989 or so, a friend read a book about teenagers and their parents going through a nuclear war. I don’t remember much about it, except the friend got it through my elementary school’s library, and it mentioned refugee camps of some sort.
