That is an AP English assignment and must be a book of literary merit. I think reading "The Secret Life of Bees" did you recommend? I heard it was pretty sad .. can you if you Please include a brief summary? Or should I read Persuasion or pride and prejudice by jane austen?

I have never ready any Jane Austen, but I know everyone says she is simply wonderful. I have not read "The Secret Life of Bees". This is a girl named Lily, who lives with her abusive father and her black nurse, Rosaline. His mother died when she was little. She tried to get out of T-Ray (the father), and Lily pointed a gun on her to give him. The gun went off accidentally and killed her mother Lily. Rosaline racist insults three in the city, and they are forced to flee. They go in this house that belongs to the Nuns Calendar (August, June and May Boatwright). They have a honey company, but there is a secret: August Boatwright raised the mother Lily. It's like a good book. Be sure to read it with a box of tissues. Good luck! : D Happy reading!

Jane Austen: Blood Persuasion $9.99 It is 1810, and the Damned are out of favor—banished from polite society. Jane Austen’s old undead friends have become new neighbors, raising hell in her tranquil village just in time to interrupt Jane’s work on what will be her masterpiece. Suddenly Jane’s niece is flirting dangerously with vampires, and a formerly respectable spinster friend has discovered the forbidden joys of intimate congress with the Damned (and is borrowing Jane’s precious silk stockings for her assignations). Writing is simply impossible now, with murderous creatures prowling the village’s once-peaceful lanes. And with the return of her vampire characteristics, a civil war looming between factions of the Damned, and a former lover who intends to spend eternity blaming her for his broken heart, Jane is facing a very busy year indeed.

Persuasion $9.99 Jane Austen’s last and most melancholy novel was published posthumously in 1818. In PERSUASION, Austen creates a strong, mature, and independent heroine, Anne Elliot. Having foolishly broken off an engagement eight years earlier to Frederick Wentworth, a penniless naval officer, Anne at the age of 27 has remained unmarried–and secretly devoted to Wentworth. Living with her vain, self-absorbed, and (of course) ridiculous father, Anne is sinking gently into a resigned spinsterhood when Wentworth, who has gained wealth and a name for himself, comes back into her life. Set in 1814 and 1815, PERSUASION was written in 1816, when Jane Austen was already ill; perhaps her decline left its mark on the novel. PERSUASION, however, while more serious in tone than Austen’s other works–and, interestingly, more attuned to landscape and the beauties of nature–retains her gift for satire and her sometimes mordant wit.
