A Separate Peace
By John Knowles

A classic I would recommend to another person is A Separate Peace by John
Knowles. It is about two friends who go to the same boarding school. It
tells about their problems between each other, their family, and with themselves.
I think it is good because it deals with problems that could really happen
to you. For example, one person didn't want to go to fight in the war because
his friends didn't believe in him. He finally decided to go because he believed
in himself and realized that he had to believe in himself.
I also think it was interesting to find out what would happen to the characters,
as they went their separate ways. If you like books that have a lot to do
with real problems that could happen to you, I recommend you read A Separate
Peace by John Knowles.
