[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My wife likes historical fiction but is looking for something outside of the orbit of The Other Boleyn Girl (I acknowledge the chronological distinction). Any suggestions for a book that is set in a more contemporaneous period? My list so far includes: -Rules of Civility -The Silver Music Box -The Orphan Master's Son -Code Name Verity -The Invisible Bridge[/quote] Can you be specific about your time period? There are some good ones set during WW2, but to me they don't even feel like historical fiction, probably because I'm older (not old enough for WW2 though) and heard about it so much from parents/grandparents. Any particular era? The Silver Music Box is basically a romance novel, or reads like one. Is that the type of book she likes?[/quote]
