AP English IV Reading List

<p>Hey everyone! I just wanted to know if anybody would like to give his or her opinion of the reading list that I have for AP English this year. I have to read eight of the books and write book analyses on them :/ Are some books better or more interesting than others? Are some easier to read? Please share!</p>

<p>By the way, the numbers after the books have to do something with how many times they've appeared on the AP test. I'm not exactly sure though. They're on the reading list that my teacher gave me, so I'm just keeping them there.</p>
