Reading List 9/10th grade

There are lots of awesome reading lists for the college bound on Pinterest.  Just enter those words and you are golden.  And although she is technically doing British Literature (which is often done in 10th grade) through Alpha and Omega, I made a list for her that I am expecting as well (not all British, just good books)

What makes this even better is that 'ord' means 'word' or 'words' in swedish, danish and norwegian ;):

She has 12, one for each month and can do them in whatever order she pleases.

Jane Eyre-  English
20,000 Leagues Under the Sea-  French
The Count of Monte Cristo-   French
Emma-  English
My Antonia-  American
Watership Down-  English
Walden-  American
Gulliver's Travels-  Irish
Lord of the Flies-  English
Fahrenheit 451-  American
The Hobbit-  English  (via South Africa)
Frankenstein-  English

I don't require book reviews because I think they ruin the reading experience and have made many people who would have been readers despise it.  As long as she finishes one big book per month she can read whatever else she wants to.  In her world that pretty much amounts to reading and rereading Harry Potter.....
