5 Best Books: Set in War


The 5 Best Books meme is hosted by Cassandra at Indie Reader Houston.

I found this meme through Bibliosue and thought it sounded like fun. This week's 5 Best is the 5 best books that take place during a war. Here are a few off the top of my head:

1. The Killer Angels by Michael Shaara
2. Gone with the Wind by Margaret Mitchell
3. The Diary of a Young Girl by Anne Frank
4. Catch-22 by Joseph Heller
5. Slaughterhouse Five by Kurt Vonnegut

    This sounds like a fun meme. Never heard of it before! The Killer Angels, Gone With The Wind, and The Diary of a Young Girl are great picks!

    An interesting meme. I've posted my 5 faves too. Haven't read these books except for Gone with the wind.

    I love your list! Thanks for joining us. I've added you to the (new) linky.

    I'm proud of myself because I've read 3 of the ones on your list. I have always wanted to read The Killer Angels. Definitely going to have to add that one to the list.

    I kept my list to fiction otherwise Anne Frank's Diary would definitely have been at the top.

    Congratulations on your child's graduation!

    I haven't heard of The Killer Angels before; I'll have to check it out.

    I had both number two and number three on my list too!

Sorry folks, but I have been getting an incredible amount of spam. I have adjusted my settings and all messages will be moderated from now on. If that does not take care of the problem then I will have to go to the "Prove You're Not a Robot" thing--which I hate as much as you do.

If your name does not appear automatically, please tell me your name in the comment. Otherwise you will just show up as "Unknown." Thanks!
