I went with those that were mentioned the most often and that were less than 600 pages long because a lot of you are busy with school work and so on. Pick your favorite one!

I'm going with Pride and Prejudice. I really want to read the annotated version. I also really want 1984. Pride and Prejudice may be good because so many people are busy with school...

I went with 1984 because it's been sitting on my desk for way too long and also because I've read all of the others. wouldn't mind reading them again though, they're great classics!

I went with Alice in Wonderland because it's the one I most want to read, but some of the others I've been wanting to read as well.

Wow all these books are great! I'm having a very hard time to decide especially between Pride and Prejudice and 1984.. I'll think about it and vote later!

I voted Persuasion because I didn't like it much the first time around and think I might get more out of it if I discuss it with a group. But all of the books sound okay will me.
