World War II isn't one of my favourite eras of history either so I tend to avoid a lot of media surround that time. I'm sure I'm missing out on a lot, I do want to read it but I can't bring myself to read it - I read for pleasure and I can't, I won't, enjoy something set during such a horrific period.
