Elizabeth (Alaska) Night by Elie Wiesel, an autobiography, appears on the list World War II Fiction with quite a number of votes.

I hesitate to remove it from the list because of the number of votes. Still, it is not appropriate for a list of fiction.

Antonomasia | 514 comments I'm guessing it's this one? https://www.goodreads.com/list/show/2...

Other people have asked for it to be removed. If they hadn't, and if it wasn't my list, I'd leave it - but most of the comments are about the amount of non-fiction on the list.

You don't actually have to guess. My post has a link to the list.

Emily | 17651 comments I'd delete it. Whoever added it (and others) may not have read the list title carefully--

or perhaps some people did not realize what they read was nonfiction... :-/

Night is not fiction. Removed.


Elizabeth (Alaska) Thanks, Emily. I guess I needed hand-holding for that one title. I see other things that need to be removed and have started doing so.
