Some books from the list could be 'The Book Thief' by Markus Zusak. It's about a girl in Nazi Germany who steals books. It's a really moving story. 'A Tale of Two Cities' by Charles Dickens is also a must - read. Set during the French Revolution, it shows the contrast between London and Paris at that time. And 'The Red Tent' by Anita Diamant, which is based on the story of Dinah from the Bible.

Well, from that list, I'd suggest 'All the Light We Cannot See' by Anthony Doerr. It tells a beautiful story of a blind French girl and a German boy during World War II. Also, 'I, Claudius' by Robert Graves is an excellent historical fiction set in ancient Rome. It delves into the power struggles and family dramas of the Roman emperors. Then there's 'The Name of the Rose' by Umberto Eco, which takes place in a 14th - century Italian monastery.

Yu!” She stomped her feet out of anger. The man grinned, “So what we have no kids? You are my little baby.” Pei Qiqi thought, how did this scene change so fast!
