I have a lot of those.
Lord of the Flies
Catcher in the Rye
Grapes of Wrath
Jane Eyre
A Tale of Two Cities
A Farewell to Arms
Catch-22
The Sun Also Rises
For Whom the Bell Tolls
Atlas Shrugged
And to my ultimate shame:
Native Son
Black Boy
And I didn't read Great Expectations, Pride and Prejudice, and 1984 until I got to college.
I don't believe I got through high school (and two AP courses) without having to read them.

Hmm.. Let's see.
I never finished the vampire chronicles.
I intend to do so, but... meh.
I feel suffocated if I think of the books I want to read just this year [until 2007 starts].
From The Scarlet Letter to Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, Murder and Punishment, Wuthering Heights, Frankenstein and The Ring of McAllister.
I also never finished LOTR, or anything by Tolkein properly.
The way he writes bores me, but then again his vocabulary is prolific.
There are many other books I regret not reading, but I will make up for it, eventually.

We had to read Catcher in the Rye for 8th grade. Half the class liked it and half the class hated it. I was a little neutral about the book. It would've been okay if Holden wasn't so god damn whiney about everything. I read a Tale of Two Cities as an extra credit... it was a little boring in the beginning and the fact that it described unnecessary stuff and went on explaining details that has nothing to do with the chapter made it very very very boring. And it was hard for me to memorize the names of the characters. I only memorized the Mannettes since their last name was just... recognizable I guess. My class is going to read Lord of the Flies at the end of the year..or somewhat in the middle of the year.
I do feel bad because I didn't get to read How to Kill a Mockingbird. It was an optional book for my year and then we have to read it next year...
I kinda wish I read Midnight's Summer Stream.. or is that how it goes?

My friend has been trying to get me to read The Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged forever. I'm going to have to give in sooner or later.
Then there's also:
- Moby Dick
- Last two books of the Vampire Chronicles
- The Bell Jar
- The Odyssey
And I really need to read some Terry Brooks.
