War books?

I am not really a war book fan. I was never interested in war films or books. This class is opening up my senses to what our country is undergoing and how the people are reacting to it. I thought in the beginning of this class that it was going to be a lot of different selections of readings not just of war. After reading like 10 war books, 4 articles and by reviewing, it clicked on how everything we have done so far works together with what we learned so far. I must say it is both interesting and boring at the same time learning about this. My whole thing is that everyone we read about seems to be a victim on war in some shape or form, and everyone stressed the harsh realities that they go through, but why do it and complain about it, if they knew what they were signing up for? it is what it is...But my emotions don't matter in this case. Just food for thought!!!!
