Never Ever Get Rid Of Me (countryhumans x f.reader) (part 1) by meilley_

One of the shittiest book you can read, or maybe one of your favorites. During WWII. So basically Axes and Allies. Good luck, there are 2 parts. Oh and, be aware that you can find hard topics (like lemons, or depression (Idk if it's in this book or in the second part), and... I don't recall the rest, but heh, read it if you want). No pressure, and take your time. This book is shitty, really, but I find it nice when I was writing it as a teenage. Still one, but not for so long... damn..... ⚠spoiler list alert⚠ List of what we got for now here: UK France Switzerland Third Reich Fascist Italy URSS Japanese Empire Poland Japan Italy West and East Germany And I forgot about the others... But yeah, you have some countryhumans

Soaked Tyrants by A_E_Edmond

This is for a project at school. I wanted to share it to people as well. Though it is a "Man in the High Castle" like story. So, if you are sensitive to those things please consider not reading this, but that is it. Anyway, Simon Frank is on his way home.

Huella (Paul Lahote) by Kili-Loverxx

Alejandra Matoaka Cali Potter-Black had enough of Wizarding Britain. After the war she wasn't coping well with the severe PTSD she suffered, so she decided to leave it all behind and return to her true home of La Push, Washington. A home that's she's had with her Uncle Billy Black since she was five years old, a home where she had cousins who loved her, and a soulmate, and Imprinter, Paul Lahote who made things work despite the distance. How will she cope with the PTSD and all that's happening in Forks? Huella means imprint in Spanish. Disclaimer: This is set in 2020 during New Moon and after the final battle at Hogwarts. And no there's no covid before anyone asks. I don't own Harry Potter or twilight just my OCs and changes to the story and plot. The Blacks from the tribe in this story are not related to the House of Black in England, Lily is related to Sarah Black as they are cousins through their fathers. Harry Potter is brought forwards to line up with my new timeline. Paul Love story!!! {Started: 07/11/2023} #8 ptsd awareness 14/01/2024 #5 ptsd awareness 18/11/2023

Picking Up The Pieces by SophiaEBenz

Hey guys! This book has been officially published on Amazon. It's available as an ebook or a paperback. The version available on Amazon has been edited and I even changed some of the plot. I'd love it if you went to check it out and maybe even bought it. (https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0BF333KWH/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?ie=UTF8&qid=&sr=) Love, Sophia *** "I-" I try to say something, anything, but the words get stuck in my throat when Jonas suddenly grabs the collar of my shirt and pulls me awfully close to his face. "Shut it!" Chills shoot down my spine as if someone just dumped a bucket of ice water down the back of my shirt. What is he doing? I know he can get angry sometimes, but he wouldn't dare to lay a hand on me in public, would he? I wait and wait for him to do something, but he does nothing because we get interrupted by a loud voice that sounds through the quiet of the night. "Hey!" I dare to open my eyes a little to see where it's coming from. A tall blond guy, carrying grocery bags is standing a couple yards away. "Yes, I'm talking to you! Step away from the girl right now!" *** The story of two broken souls- Madeleine Evans, a college student in an abusive relationship, and Elias Sanders, a soldier suffering from PTSD- trying to pick up their own and each other's pieces. Warning: Mature content! (Violence, strong language, sexual assault, substance abuse...)

The War To End All Wars by EnoniGirl

Essentially, a World War Two book, I'm just not sure of what to call it. As always, any suggestions are welcome.

A Road To Hope | ls au by lcs_nvk

"We're far from the people and their issues, don't hold back. Please." It's true. They are far away from anything that could stop them, the middle of nowhere being the safest place on Earth for them to fall in love. The sacred land where sacred love is created. However, Louis is certain that even if they weren't safe, he wouldn't resist the sight of Harry, his pleading eyes, his warm skin beneath his touch. or In the heat of April, 1944, an escapee soldier lost in a dirt-road stumbles upon a small farm and finds himself recovering from the traumas of World War II in the simplicity of a frugal life, with the help of a little boy's innocent soul, and a farmer's hopeful green-eyes. ~ Warnings: sexual content, explicit language, graphic descriptions of violence and war. I do not own the picture of the cover, nor do I mean any disrespect or claim ownership over the real people that the characters are based of. This is pure fiction.

The Wicked and the Haunted by MakaylaG16

It's 1941 and the Holocaust has just began. Many Jews and Gypsies are being taken from their homes and put into ghettos and then eventually camps. There are so many deaths that no one knows who has died and who hasn't, families have been separated, and children along with the elders have been killed. But this story is a story unlike any other. She was a survivor and she wasn't about to die now.

The One Who Stole the Sky by WhiteRice1718

*COMPLETED* "Liesel, what's the matter?" Max's concern was that of a mother's, so flat, but so serious. "Max, there is no one to thank left." Liesel changed her view to peer at the dusty floor. She missed Max's countenance gaping mouth and large eyes afflicted by her words. Not only had Max stolen the sky, he stole Liesel's heart too. Now, in Post-WWII Germany, the Allies have brought relief. Life is just beginning to come out of hiding, ready to blossom and flourish as it once did before. No one no longer cowers in fear. But something stirs in Russia: Communism. How will a Jew and innocent German girl make it safely in this ever-changing world that is right out their door? NOTE: This is after The Book Thief story (sequel if you will), so there are some spoilers if you haven't seen/read anything about it. However, if you don't care about the movie/book/spoilers, then it still makes for an eye opening, post-WWII fan fiction. Personally, I feel this is my best piece of writing I've ever shared on Wattpad. I hope everyone enjoys! NOTE: I DO NOT own any of the characters or the cover picture!

Into The Trenches: A World War I Journal [2019] by amanda_denney_writes

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).
