well i recommend to kill a mockingbird for you because anne frank's book is more of a girly book. some material may bore or disgust you.

I personally enjoyed "To Kill A Mockingbird" better than "Anne Frank"

You might be able to find them both online for free. (Some people prefer hardcopy though.) You could also find either book at the local library easily. I would rather reread To Kill a Mockingbird again but only because I read the diary at least 3 times in high school.

Anne Frank: War memories. Young Jewish girl hiding from the Nazis in Holland.
To Kill a Mockingbird: Does not give advise in how to kill mockingbirds. Does preach racial tolerance.
Which one sounds better?

There are just so many books, it's kind of hard giving a useful advise...You mentioned Ann Frank, so maybe you're interested in history of the holocaust under Nazis ? If you want to learn about sufferings in Soviet concentration camps you should read Aleksandr Solženicins' novel named : "One day in a life of Ivan Vasiljevic", or something like " The drowned and the saved " by Italian Jew Primo Levi, who spent one year in a German lager of Auschwitz...
On the other hand, if you'd prefer something funny, try a Czech
author Jaroslav Hašek and his novel : " Švejk, the good soldier"; Švejk is a wise ***, that always manage to turn bad events into something useful, making fool of his fanatic superior officer lieutenant Lukas. It's a novel that shows how a simple person outwitted bureaucratic
Austro - Hungarian army authorities in WW1 and got away with it - even got decorated !

Since you are looking for classic books, I suggest looking at The Everyman's Library. See the link below. Look around. You might be more interested in different kinds of books than the two you mention.

I want you to buy whichever you want to buy. It's your money so your book choice. If it were me I'd buy "To Kill a Mockingbird". Having read both I enjoyed that one much more and wouldn't mind a reread.

They're both sad and depressing. Try something by James Lee Burke, John Lescroart, or Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child.

Are you going to read it to us over a webcast?
I think you should buy one, read it and then buy the other one.
