What did you have to read when you were in 9th grade?

Question

What were the names of the books you read in 9th grade literature? I'm about to go into high school, and they didn't give us a summer reading list, but I read books like "To Kill A Mockingbird" by Harper Lee, "Romeo and Juliet" by Shakespear, "Great Expectations" by Charles Dickens, and almost all of Jane Austen's books. What else do you recommend?

By the way, I'm in an honors course, if that changes things at all?

Answer 7

I read EVERYTHING I could get my hands on ! I spent MORE time at the Library- than I did at Home... and like YOU- I concentrated on the Classics. Since I was a huge fan of Shakespeare & Dickens, I read ALL of their works (Dickens especially- wrote a LOT). So if You can keep on concentrating on the Authors that Interest You- you should have PLENTY to read & enjoy for a LONG Time !  :)  

Answer 8

We read "Romeo and Juliet" and a bunch of short stories that I can't remember. Freshman year was mostly a grammar year for my class, not much reading.
