What is the name of the young adult trilogy where a girl and her friends are trapped in a board game?

Its called the Forbidden Game by LJ Smith ( who also wrote the Vampire Diaries) - its a trilogy. And the magical boy you are talking about is a shadow man named Julian. Its one of my favourites .

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
