How To Use This Book List

Many of the books here are written for young adults. However, some are definitely adult books. I don't always specify in my comments; however if you are interested in a book, find it at the library. If it's in Juvenile Fiction or Young Adult Fiction, it's usually safe for kids 12-15 (be sure to preview just in case). If the book is found elsewhere, you can always ask a librarian for their input.
Personally, a few swear words don't do much for me, so I don't usually remember they are in there. Other types of content, however, are usually commented on.
Enjoy!!

p.s. Please leave a "care-to-share" (aka, comment) anytime you like.

All Other Nights

by Dara Horn

This historical fiction gives an account of life for a Northerner, Southerner, soldier, civilian, and others both during the Civil War and after....wow!  I love history, but haven't read much about the Civil War.  It gives information without being graphic; it helped me better understand what life was like for a variety of people and just how volatile the entire war was.  Great book!!
