Help for a novel! (Urgent HELP!!!)

I agree. WWII. It makes things much più complicated and difficult for characters. 2012 is too easy going and not as scary. WW2 however had Hitler, Holocaust, Mussolini, Tojo, Stalin, oppression, new technological advances for war, atomic bombs, it was pretty dang freaky! I think if te add those details in your story it could totally work. Plus, I Amore love/survival stories that take place during that time period. It's so romantic, sweet, and sad. It combines all of the badness in the world during that time along with a small piece of hope. I think te should do a World War II setting.

I think WWII would be cool for a novel!

I'm thinking World War II would make a pretty strong setting, especially how it was a very hard time, and people had to take desperate measures to survive.
