Yes, that was the best part, but I actually liked Lord of the Flies. (Probably because a lot of people died)
I thought it was genius.
You should read the Spark Notes that go along with it. n_n

the only books I can remember at the moment are
-To Kill A Mocking Brid
-The Giver (twice, I moved and the next year I had to REread it..)
-Alas, Babaylon
-The Odyess
-Our Town
-All Quiet on the Western Front
-Romeo and Juliet
-Frankenstien *Mary Shelly's*
-lots of random shorts & poems
thankfully most books weren't required, our teacher would get tired of us and say we can chose and write a paper on that...
more, I just can't remeber what they're called...

In 9th grade, we read a LOT of Shakespeare. And the Odyssey, Animal Farm, Night, Farewell to Manzinar, and 4 other books. I forget.
And my teacher this year is a really laid-back musician, so, so far we've read:
Julius Caesar.
To Kill a Mockingbird.
Fahrenheit 451.
Lord of the Flies.
I actually think that's it. o_o
Yeah, and we're in the middle of TKAMB right now. So this guy goes slow.
Although I'm taking AP English next year. I'll read like 12 books. e_e;

There aren't that many good books. 
Even the ones they make everyone read aren't that good anyways. Like The Odyssey.
And if you take some of the specialized classes, you get to read different stuff. I had IB English last year, and we read Invisible Man, Like Water for Chocolate, and Chronicle of a Death Foretold. They were all quite good.

I don't think I'd ever take an AP english class, that'd drive me insane with all the work and how you have to read between the lines... It's hard enough to read the book as is, *ex:Frankenstein* to many thousts and wilts and and no I won't not...to confusing...

believe it or not AP isnt bad...teachers normally like the class more and tend to be nicer and give you more interesting assignments but reading books for school makes them 10 times less enjoyable then they would be otherwise neutral
