The Young Adult Historical Fiction Society discussion

It's that time of the month again! Please nominate a YA historical fiction book that you'd like to read for next month. Thanks :-) We will pick 2 books this time since there was a good response for it this month!

I nominate The Edge on the Sword by Rebecca Tingle.

Can I nominate Churchill's children, by A R Grogan (me)

I think it would be really cool to go with a classic this month; something like North and South would be nice. (Have you seen the North and South mini series? THAT would be a thread-starter for sure!) I've also had my eye on I am Rembrandt's Daughter. I am excited to start reading another amazing book with the club!

Having a classic is a great idea :-) it's not exactly YA, but books like that are on high school reading lists so it should be okay to put it in the poll ;-)

If no one else nominates something, I'll try to set up a poll tomorrow since February is almost here and we need to get started on the new books soon :-)

A lot of classics are considered young adult because they feature teenage characters and coming of age plots. They also appeal to adults with teenagers because they're considered safe and educational.

Thanks for your input everyone! I'll start up the poll.
