I am a student In high school who was asked to choose a book to write an analysis Book essay about it. I chose Purple Heart, I’m a military fan and grew up with the service. I really enjoyed reading this book I didnt want it to stop. Im glad I chose this book because I believe now it’s got to be one of my favorites

This book sounds like a very important read. Something that really makes you think about the consequences of war for those fighting it – something that we don’t really take the time to think of very frequently. Great review. This is something that I would have probably bypassed in a library or bookstore without realizing the significance of the story and the experiences that it represents.

I’m adding this one to my wish list. I like reading military stories such as this (although usually nonfiction instead of fiction).

I’ve heard excellent things about Sunrise Over Fallujah by Walter Dean Myers – a young man who goes to Iraq during the war.

Wow, sounds like an intense book! I haven’t heard of any other books on this subject, but it seems like there have been a few movies lately about the Iraq war. Thanks for recommending

I’m very glad to hear about a war novel that doesn’t assume right-ness or wrong-ness of war or the war.
