What realistic/historical fiction books would be really good?

[Giseickson]

I really enjoyed Slam by Nick Hornby, The Priveledge of Youth by David Pelzer, and The Boy in the Striped Pajamas. Theyre all realistic fiction or historical fiction taht are not make belive or fantasy. I really hate make believe stories or ones that are very ;unrealistic and would really like a realistic book.

How about The Aubrey–Maturin series by Patrick O'Brian? I have really enjoyed them.
