mine's The Outsiders

[Brett Davison]

"Brave New World"

[Charlotte Ann Gislam]

Fantastic book. Creepy how close to the mark Huxley was getting to our own society that far back.

[Emilie Jones]

A Thousand Splendid Suns, totally worth a read.

[Cora.K]

To Kill a Mocking Bird  

[Aoife hayes]

I was only ever assigned 2 books to read in secondary school: Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry by Mildred D. Taylor, and Lies of Silence by Brian Moore.

Definitely Roll of Thunder was my favourite; the other being one of my least favourite books that I have *ever* read.

Ian McEwan's On Chesil Beach

Although a little explicit on content at one very brutal moment this book was amazing and showed to me pacing like no other book could. Ian McEwan can show the wingbeats of a hummingbird in slow motion before heartbreakingly speeding through the rest of someones life. A beautiful but ultimately sad read which wouldn't of been found without my college teacher.

Slaughterhouse Five by Kurt Vonnegut

[Maritza Dominguez]

Frankenstein, The Great Gatsby, Brave New World, and To Kill a Mockingbird. I really enjoyed all of these books. 

[Taylor Clarke]

My favourite is quite recent actually. I was assigned "Del-Del" by Victor Kelleher. It was a really bizarre novel but it was fun to write an essay about!

[Molly]

The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind. 

[Maddie]

The Outsiders

[Brandon Dolezal]

I look forward to the day that we start seeing TFiOS pop onto this list.

 

Oh, My favourite was probably LotF.
