Laura T asked:


I got A Great and Terrible Beauty, but it doesn't come for a while. I like books with some romance, so I want to know if this book has any. Please don't give away the story! Also, if you know any good historical romance novels for young adults, please tell me what they are and maybe the time period.

    Yeah…if you consider dreaming about getting squeezed by some boy you’re pretending to hate romance. It’s not really. The second and third book are more so romance than the first one.

    I put down AGATB. It didn’t hold my attention very well.
    Try reincarnation by suzanne weyn.
    It goes through several periods

  • Anne:

    Sort of, there is a little bit, but the second and third, especially the third, have more. A Great and Terrible Beauty is a great book though, one of my favorites of all time.

    I just loooooved ‘Iskander’ by Louis Couperus. It’s a romanced history of Alexander Macedon, Iskander is his oriental name. book won a couple of prizes, too. it was first published in 1920 in Holland. enjoy!

  • Anna W:

    Yeah, the first one she just has like this weird fantasy dream about Kartik, but the 2nd and 3rd have some more action. There’s tons of good his. fiction books for teens out there, too many to list. I recommend looking a list up on amazon.com.
