I want to write about a book that has some kind of moral in it, not shallow, isn't too fictional, suitable for a 10th grader, interesting, good language and writing style.
Some books I read and liked:My Sister's Keeper by Jodi Picoult (though didn't like the style of writing), Inkheart; Inkspell; Dragon Rider by Cornelia Funke, Harrypotter series by J. K. Rowling, One Child by Tory Hayden, Jane Eyre by Charlotte Brontë, Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen, The Count of Monte Cristo by Alexander Dumas, Magyk by Angie Sage, The wee free men; A hat full of sky by Terry Patchet, Pygmalion by Bernard Shaw, Princess Diaries by Meg Cabot. Books I read but didn't like or even complete:Little Women by Lousia May Alcott (nice story but very boring to read), The Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown
If you think any of the above is good enough or would like to suggest another book please don't hesitate and do tell. Please tell me why you think that book should be the one! Buying a book is no problem! Thx

You may want to consider "The Lovely Bones" by Alice Sebold. Gripping and very well written. Sebold uses a very unusual narrative technique -- you could easily talk about this in your review. One slight caveat: it's a difficult read, not in terms of its complexity (I can tell from the list of books you gave that you are an advanced reader) but its subject. Lots of luck!

Read "Animal Farm", teachers love this book becasue of its sybolism. It is a funny book yet applys to real life using amimals instead of people.

Also, it is short but you will find lots of information about it on the internet

or the book "1984"...also very good.

both are by Orwell

Good Luck

Theres this really awesome book called "My Heartbeat." I don't know who it's by off the top of my head...but it's very good.
