What if you had lived before? For eighteen-year-old Lavinia Gregory every day is like waking up from a dream, the older she gets the more she remembers. She used to be shorter, with long, dark hair- not now, and it is not just the colour of her hair that has changed, it is her entire life. Over the years, the memories of her past life became less vague, less like shadows and colours and more like the thundering horses that always seem to be hammering across her chest. Lavinia had a family, a family she sacrificed everything for and now they're gone and she's here. In a world full of ghostly shadows and unfinished memories. Lavinia must discover, why she came back to this world and how she died in the first place. But most importantly what happened to him, Will, the one she loved above all the rest?

"Bitterness is unbecoming of a woman, but I cherish mine like the memory of first love. I see nothing in Leon Wagner, but an automaton. He is a machine of the Third Reich. I am surprised he even bleeds." In the summer of 1945, the world rejoices at the surrender of first Germany then Japan, but healing is a long time coming. Though they are not visible, Ruth Tucker's wounds run deep. Having worked as a nurse for the American Red Cross since the invasion of Normandy, Ruth's hatred for her country's former enemy runs deep. While stationed in Zell am See, Austria, she is assigned to nurse in a German POW camp. She meets a young Wehrmacht soldier, Leon Wagner, who speaks English and strives to spark a friendship with her. But Ruth's bitterness is almost too strong. All she sees in Leon is a heartless machine. Slowly, through a shared love of books and their families, she begins to recognize his humanity and starts to feel her own stir in her heart, something she thought long deadened by the months of violence.

Shadows May Fall by annemariehartnett
41 parts Complete
Winter, 1917. Dorothy never really thought that war would take her older brother, but like so many others before him, Ian enlisted and departed Canada in khaki, leaving Dorothy to care for the youngest Gaston, Charlie. The return of her employer's son eats away at Dorothy: why should he, the rich man's son, the spoiled brat, be back home sleeping in his bed while her brother sleeps in the muck somewhere in France or Belgium? Robbie Monroe isn't the brat who ran off for a great adventure. Nearly deaf in one ear and deeply lonely, he is a man struggling to put his life back together after his time "over there," and Dorothy seems to be the only one he can talk to. She doesn't want to trust him but she can't help it, and Dorothy soon finds herself with something she didn't realize she desperately needed: a friend. Before the war's end, fate has one final reminder for Dorothy that happy endings don't always happen in real life, no matter how much she tells herself they can. Set in in the weeks before the 1917 Halifax Explosion, Shadows May Fall is a non-traditional World War I romance.

It is 1914, and Henry Anderson is watching the world descend into war. Like many young men at the time, he is fascinated by the idea of warfare and glory. Henry enlists in the military against his parents' wishes and throws himself into the life of a British soldier in Flanders. But it is far from what he expects: Henry's fantasies of righteous battle fade into the grim reality of gruesome death and shell-shock. He and his fellow soldier Jacob must help each other survive the cruel trenches, but it is no longer certain that either of them will return to England alive. Told in journal entries and letters from Henry's sister Elizabeth, this reveals the realities and horrors of World War I, on the battlefield and in the homefront. I wrote this for a history project while studying WWI and got way too involved in it, so here you are. WARNINGS: gun/bomb/gas-related violence, war descriptions, graphic death, suicide attempt. I will mark specific chapters with warnings and give summaries of those chapters on the following one. These may not be complete, so if a chapter is not marked and should be, please comment to let me know. Written in 2019 (age 15).

AMBYS 2024 FAVOURITE PARANORMAL NOVEL :) Two hundred and fifty years after the world ended and the vampire's reign began, Hadley's pregnant mother Aadya, and her mother's sister, Aunt Zenobia, are Wildlings captured and brought into a Compound to reinvigorate the gene pool of genetically modified humans bred to supply the vampires with blood. They are sworn to secrecy of the outside world under threat of losing their tongues, their lives, or worse, their daughters' lives. However, Aunt Zee breaks the rules and tells curious, intrepid Hadley everything about the Wildlings, training her to survive the outside world. And when Hadley turns twenty, only weeks away from Conception Day, she becomes the first human in history to ever escape a Barn, determined to give birth to her daughter in the company of her mother's people - the only truly free humans in the world - The Wildlings. It was supposed to be a simple plan: escape the Compound, get her bearings, then use Aunt Zee's map to locate the Wildling tribes. And if Hadley ran into a vampire, Aunt Zee's one and only rule was "incapacitate and run". But what happens when Hadley meets the dangerous and devastatingly gorgeous Ruqwik and has to break the rules by forming an uneasy alliance with the vampire? Because, after twenty years, everything beyond the Compound walls has changed, and vampires are the least of her worries.
