Answer 2

What do you like? What interests you? Do you like crime, or real life, or romance or fantasy. No one can chose the books for you, but think about what you like, and what you are passionate about. Because the passion for the subject will be reflected in your paper. You will use enthusiasm and an inner knowledge. You teacher will sense this, and know that you are writing and reading about something your enjoy. It will come out better every time, if you listen to yourself!

Answer 3

Try reading Woman on the Edge of Time, by Marge Piercy.

She is a second wave feminist author - who is still producing today. "Woman" was written in 1976, but is still quite relevant.
