Presentation transcript:

Animal Farm You would like this book if you enjoy historical satire and political metaphors

Emma If you like match-making, if you are girly and enjoy reading about love, gossip and boys, you would like this novel.

Frankenstein A good book for suspense and heartbreak. A lot like an Edgar Allan Poe piece.

A Midsummer Night’s Dream This is great and funny if you like Shakespeare

Paradise Lost You would like this book if you like Biblical stories and poetry

The Picture of Dorian Gray You would like this book if you like corruption. It deals with betrayal, love, death and fame.

Pride and Prejudice Read this if you like love stories. You would like this novel if you like love stories that get messed up but have a happy ending.

Robinson Crusoe You would like this book if you like something that is jam-packed with suspense and excitement. Read it if you like an everyday style of writing and adventure like Castaway or Swiss Family Robinson.

A Room with a View Great book! Read it if you are a hopeless romantic. It talks a lot about love and what people do for love. You would like this book if you are into romance such as Romeo and Juliet and West Side Story.

A Tale of Two Cities You would like this book if you are interested in a combination of love and war. You should have an interest in historical revolutions. The book also has a twist in it like you would find in any of the Bourne movies.

Wuthering Heights A classic piece of English literature that requires a lot of thought, but it was awesome! A good love story.

Sense and Sensibility Read this book if you like love stories or books dealing with learning about finding love and growing up. It is about sisters marrying wealthy and their mother living through her girls.

The Hound of the Baskervilles You would like this book if you love mysteries and like to solve crimes. If you like to be on the edge of your seat in suspense, this is the book to read.

Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland If you think out of the box, you would like this book. You must be a very deep thinker. This is nothing like the movie. It is not an easy read. The wording and logic are bizarre, but make it interesting. WARNING: Every student who attempts this book because he/she thinks it’s like the movie has a VERY difficult time with the research paper = a low grade! Only for advanced readers!

The Secret Sharer If you enjoy suspense and imagery, you would like this book. You will feel like you are actually in the novel.

Beowulf If you enjoy mythology, you would like this epic poem. Be ready for the sentence structure, but if you liked 300 and have an interest in history, you would like this.

1984 You would like this novel if you like science fiction or futuristic books. In this book, you see one person against another, elements of Totalitarianism, and a sad ending.

your title to me I will reply so you know you are good to go! Need book in hand by Friday (if not before).
