Hey guys, so in my English class I'm way ahead of everyone, so I've been given extra work to do for more credit. I need suggestions for good books that I can write a reading response to.

Here is what I've got so far:
1st to Die - James Patterson

I need five more, so suggestions are appreciated. Please be serious with these.

 

What grade level?

 

a little life by hanya yanagihara

it has some pretty rough subjects in there so read at your own discretion if you decide to

 

It's level 6, Year 11.

Hmm, I may check it out, I like stories with rough subjects.

 

The Great Gatsby

The Crucible

Scarlet Letter

Their Eyes Were Watching God

The Awakening by Kate Chopin

In Cold Blood

The Metamorphosis

These are all of the books that I had read in 11th grade for IB English class.

 

To Kill a Mockingbird is a good book to read in 11th grade, at least here anyway.

 

Catcher in the Rye (pretty popular choice)
Things Fall Apart (really good <-)
The Great Gatsby

idk, maybe some greek drama books too?

 

ooh also oscar and the lady in pink. short and heavy but amazing.

 

Ready Player One

 

the book thief if you haven't already

 

I'm reading Axiomatic (By Greg Egan) for English as a choice to compare with Bladerunner (the film). It's a brilliant book, the author is a genius. Dunno if you're into Sci-fi though - and it's a collection of short stories. Very "what is human nature"ey though.

 

The Great Gatsby and anything by Truman Capote

 

The Hunger Games

 

ok thanks everyone, have a cookie
