Answer 5

haha thanks guys~

Answer 6

Is the question "which novels would YOU want to study in class" or "which novels do North Americans study in class?" @Mrs.Leung's response is fairly common reading in high school classrooms, and so are wingspanens, Salinger, Austen, and Bronte. Modern pop (especially teen) novels are making in-roads as well, but they are too diverse to mention.

Answer 7

well most people study the "how to kill a mocking bird" book. Oh and also "Fahrenheit 451" !!

Answer 8
