Sure. 'The Book Thief' by Markus Zusak is a great one. It's set during World War II and is told from the perspective of Death. Another is 'Code Name Verity' which is about two young women in wartime. And 'Out of the Dust' by Karen Hesse, it shows the life during the Dust Bowl era in a very touching way.
There are quite a few good YA historical fiction novels. For example, 'A Night Divided' which is about a family separated by the Berlin Wall. It really gives you a sense of what it was like to live during that time of division. Also, 'I Am Malala' is based on the true story of Malala Yousafzai, a young girl fighting for girls' education in Pakistan. Then there's 'The War That Saved My Life' which follows a young girl's journey during World War II and how she discovers a new life away from her abusive mother.
