<p>Can you list other challenging books that may improve vocabulary?</p>
<p>Books in the Ender’s Game series?.. They do have some challenging words, although I’m not sure that they’re on the SAT.</p>
<p>I’m not sure if anyone else agrees, but I found a number of SAT/difficult words in Catch-22.</p>
<p>Maybe read the “SAT Novels” by Sparknotes</p>
<p>[SparkNotes:</a> SAT Novels](<a href=“http://www.sparknotes.com/satfiction/]SparkNotes:”>http://www.sparknotes.com/satfiction/) they are free online, or you can buy them</p>
<p>They are just fiction novels that include a lot of SAT vocab. supposed to be fun! hope it helps</p>
<p>those look cool! i hope the vocab doesn’t seem dramatically forced!</p>
<p>Try The Wheel of Time. Jordan is known for his (some think overly) descriptive language.</p>
<p>Plus it’s an awesome series.</p>
<p>I’m reading one of the Sparknotes vocab novels, and it seems OK. Some of the vocab is a bit forced, but it is nice how you can just mouse over the words to see what the word means. So much less distracting than toggling back and forth between a book and the dictionary.</p>
<p>In my experience with those Spark notes novels, the vocab is pretty forced. I’m not sure how well it will work for you, but I only picked up a few of the words that I did not know. A majority of the words are pretty simple though (i.e. “universal”)</p>
<p>Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov has a lot of SAT words.</p>
<p>Frankenstein worked pretty well for me, but I would not pick books just because they have massive vocab. I would try to find a book that interests you while challenging your vocab.</p>
