For beginners, 'The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas' is a great start. It's relatively easy to read and really makes you think about the horror of the Holocaust from a child's perspective. It shows how innocence can be lost in such a cruel situation.

Another good option is 'The Book Thief'. It has a really interesting narrative style with Death as the narrator. It not only shows the impact of the Holocaust on the characters but also how literature and words can be a form of resistance. It's a great way to get into the genre as it combines historical elements with a unique storytelling approach.

I would recommend 'All But My Life'. It's a very accessible book that gives a detailed account of what it was like to endure the Holocaust. Gerda Weissmann Klein tells her story in a way that makes you feel like you are right there with her, experiencing all the pain, hope, and resilience. It's a good introduction to the more personal side of the historical events.

Perfect Secret Love: The Bad New Wife is a Little Sweet (Tagalog)

“Bakit napakalibog ni Si Ye Han? Ganito pa rin ang tingin niya sa akin?” Pagkagising niya, tiningnan niya ang kanyang sarili sa salamin: sinalubong siya ng sabog na wig, tatuan at mala-demonyong makeup. Kahit isang segunda lang, paniguradong masusunog ang mga mata ng isang normal na tao. Iba ang lalaking iniibig niya sa una buhay noon, bago siya mabuhay muli. Gusto niya lamang makawala kay Si Ye Han na kinagagalitan niya dahil ikinulong siya nito, Pero nang mabuhay siya ulit, nag-iba ang kanyang pananaw kay Si Ye Han, umaasa na siya na baka… magbabago na ito? Sa buhay niya noon, walang direksyon at napakagulo ng isip niya. Naghiwalay sila ng gwapo niyang asawa, sinaktan ng masama at mapanirang tao; higit sa lahat, ginamit siya ng matalik niyang kaibigan. At sa huli, siya ay naiwang nag-iisa. Pero ngayon, sa panibagong buhay niya, hinihintay at nagpa-plano na pabagsakin pa lamang siya ng mga masasamang taong iyon. Pasensya na pero, hindi na muli magpapaloko ang babaeng ito!

You should check out 'Maus'. It not only tells the story of the Holocaust but also shows the relationship between the survivor (the author's father) and the author. The use of animals to represent different groups makes it easier to understand the power dynamics at play during that time.
