I’m looking for some good Young adult historical fiction for a teen girl.
Nothing that takes place in America, unless it’s Alaska or something. Those kinds of books have been said and done.
I really love books that take place a long, long time ago. Medevial times and such. Romances are a plus but are not necessary. Thanks!

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 just curious. I believe literary is more towards magazines, right? I’m just curious in what work might novel might be under other than thriller and general adult fiction.

I’m looking for some interesting stuff to read but I really can’t deal with anything that has to do with sex (please don’t ask). Fiction, horror, mystery and suspence, whatever. No non-fiction.
It’s ridiculous that I have to add this but don’t answer if you’re going to say something like “Life has sex so books should”.

It doesn’t help and it’s annoying.
Further more. When I say “adult”, I don’t mean sexual. I mean reading on par with an adults level of understanding and reasoning. Not the children’s/adolescent’ section of the library.

Eva Ibbotson has written four young adult, historical fiction novels, A Countess Below Stars, A Song for Summer, A Company of Swans, and The Morning Gift. They are all spectacular and should be made into movies. I even Googled this question and didn’t come up with anything. Do any of you have any clues as to whether I should even hope for this to happen?

What are some characteristics of juvenile fiction? What about adult fiction?

Right now i’m reading Kidnapped by Stevenson (a book for teenagers) and i have to explain what are the differences between this kind of book and adult book.
I really need help with that.
If you guys know any sites that could be useful please, let me know.

I’m looking for a good fantasy fiction series that has typical magic use, but not something quite the same as harry potter, or lord of the rings, narnia, twilight, or the spiderwick chronicles. Any ideas?
