The Katie Weldon series is a spin off from the Christy Miller Series. The books start after Christy's wedding while Katie is still in college, and run through her college graduation and beyond.

by Westerfeld, Scott - I read this book and couldn’t put it down! It is really great. It is about a girl named Talley, her friends Peris, and Shay, as well as the Smokies she meets. It is set in the future, so it has many inventions, such as hoverboards, that we don’t have, but portrays the characters in a realistic way. The ending will surprise you. posted Dec 6, 2008 at 12:06PM

by Boyne, John, 1971- Another historical fiction novel with Nazi Germany. This story is about two naive boys, one German, and one Jew, who meet and the friendship they devlop.
