English Reading Material
Dear Manca and all, This is really some comprehensive list! I think the title is fair, though one detail might help: 'A List of Books that many American High Schools require - what did you read?' Considering that there are only 9 months in a school year, and one title might take a month. You get the idea. In my high school we did read Julius Ceasar, Romeo and Juliet, Inherit the Wind (GREAT book!), Johnny Tremain (I didn't get it), and parts of Walden. We didn't read Our Town but I did, and saw at least three performances of it (great writer! Good play!) In College we read Dubliners, Portrait of the Artist, the Metamorphosis, and others.

I think many, many of the books that High Schools present can't be comprehended by High School youth. Walden should wait until they are out on their own!!! During High School, some books I read on my own,and recommend: the wonderful All Quiet On the Western Front, Grapes of Wrath and the Pearl by Steinbeck, and all of Mark Twain.
I'm in grade six. I have read a few of these like The Princess Bride and The Giver. My Language Arts teacher is going to read The Outsiders to us at the end of the year. I want to read the Hobbit, Lord of the Rings, 1985 and Brave New World and I'm in the middle of reading To Kill a Mockingbird. A lot of these titles look really good including the Shakespeare titles. I'll probably end up reading most of themwhether my teacher makes me or not.
- Why reading in English is important to you. What to read.
- Most publishers of English language learning materials publish a range of graded readers on a variety of subjects covering fiction and non-fiction. Reading Tests If you are taking a standardized English test or attending English language classes, you will probably be tested on your reading skills.
Oh, and in reply to Megan: Not all kids don't like reading. I personally LOVE reading, just saying. Jmarie wrote: 'Dear Manca and all, This is really some comprehensive list! I think the title is fair, though one detail might help: 'A List of Books that many American High Schools require - what did you read.' Actually, back in the dark ages when I was in 6th grade, we were given a reading list by our AP English teacher that had over 800 titles on it arranged into American, British and World literature categories. We were to choose 9 books from the list and read one book a week.
I would love to have that list today - I'd love to try to plow my way through it as sort of a 'bucket reading list,' if you will. I agree that most of these are classics (which matches the title of the list), but I'm a teacher interested in knowing some contemporary or more cutting-edge titles that might be recommended to teach in a high school Lit class. Does anyone know of another list that has books that teachers are teaching that are new?

Or, does anyone just know some? I'd love as many ideas as possible. And, any that are good AND common core recommended would be cool too (not necessarily better, but good to know in case I need to justify them to the higher powers).

Old post but I absolutely loved The Things They Carried in high school. I wasn't what you'd call a great student either but this book was life changing for me. Originally published in 1990, I think, which makes it fairly recent.
It's gotta be better than having kids slog through Shakespeare. As interesting as this list is, I'm fairly sure that some of these (especially The Perks of Being a Wallflower, as it handles issues like rape, abortion, and child molestation) were actually banned in a lot of school libraries, so I doubt they'd be on an English syllabus. Also, some of them (like The Fault in Our Stars) would probably be too new, wouldn't they? Still, I'll probably return to this list for inspiration. I'm thinking of reading more of the classics, so this would be a good start, I reckon.
(I was homeschooled, so I didn't have 'required reading'. Most of Shakespeare I watched, in movies and broadcasts of plays. I also saw a really good documentary about the theory that Shakespeare's plays were really written by Christopher Marlowe, but I can't remember the name of it.). I just went through the entire list and counted and from middle school through high school (6 years) we were required to read 59 of these books. Split that evenly across 6 years is roughly 10 books a year.
Roughly a book a month. Which isn't bad. And you have to also remember that some of these are more like short stories than actual novels. But idk how some of you only read a handful of these books. Because even with the 59 required readings, I still read some of the books on this list just for my own enjoyment.
