All Quiet in the Western Front is a great but gruesome read. The novel shows the views of the soldiers and what they must go through during war to survive in hopes of seeing their loved ones once again.
I also recommend The Book Thief by Markus Zusak. It tells the story of World War II (not WWI this time) from the perspective of German civilians, many of whom did not sympathize with the Nazis. It is a very moving book, too.
