Try www.readbookonline.net. This site includes Novels/Fiction, Short Stories, Poems, Essays, and Plays. Also has an available list of Greatest Novels of the 20th Century, Nobel Prize Winners, and Pulitzer Prize winning books. An excellent selection.

I just found this site which has an interesting article about the controversy surround the selections of top 100 novels along with the actual list: http://www.ericajong.com/nation9812.htm
I absolutely disagree with the novel. It's like disagreeing with a list of greatest basketball players in the world because it omits women.

Usually English departments will have lists of books for students to review for their exit tests--call and ask your college's English dept.. If they don't, then call another college.
