The main themes in this historical fiction include the idea of home. As the story progresses, the concept of what home means can change. It could be a physical place that is threatened or lost due to historical circumstances. Additionally, the theme of hope is there. Despite the difficulties of the historical events, the characters may hold on to hope for a better future.
It's not historical fiction. The book mainly presents the typical life and problems of a current-day youngster, rather than having any historical context or elements.
To write a great historical fiction diary, you need to immerse yourself in the details of the era. Understand the social, cultural, and political context. Develop a unique voice for your narrator and let the events unfold naturally. Don't forget to add personal touches to make it engaging.

Another one is 'A Journal of the Plague Year' by Daniel Defoe. It's a fictional account of the Great Plague of London, written as if it were a first - hand diary. It provides detailed descriptions of the time, the people's reactions, and the overall horror of the plague.
