March, by Geraldine Brooks (adult Fiction)
by Melanie, entering 12th grade
Told from the point of view of Mr. March, father of the more commonly known Little Women. This book was told with a mixture of flashback, letters, and present-day accounts of his service time in the Civil War.
This novel recently won the Pulitzer Prize, and in my opinion, definitely deserved it. Being told from a previously not considered point of view made for a very interesting plot and perspective.
