Redemption at Hacksaw Ridge is nonfiction.
Redemption at Hacksaw Ridge is an amazing true story by Booton Herndon. It focuses on a man named Desmond Doss. Desmond is a young man growing up in Virginia when WWII breaks out. As soon as he is old enough, he volunteers for the Army to serve his country. There is just one thing that sets him apart from everyone else: he refuses to carry a gun. The story of Desmond and the events that led to the first and only conscientious objector to ever win the medal of honor is one of bravery, loyalty, and sheer will. His journey as he rescues 75 men from the nastiest battle fought in the Pacific, is one you won't want to miss.

The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho
Blurb submitted by Taylor T.
The Alchemist is fiction
The Alchemist is a head-turning novel about a journey. If you want a book that will help you along your own journey, a book about learning more about your "true self", a story of self-discovery and honest fulfillment, life lessons can be learned from this book. This is honestly one of the best books I've read in a long time, if not the complete best. I have been having a ton of crazy life issues and I needed this book and I recommend it to high school seniors who are making big decisions and adults who are lost or anyone who wants a good book.
