I need to pick a book for a book report at school,:( the book has to be from the 19th century. Any recommendations? :blink:

The Time Machine by HG Wells was published in 1895, it's fairly short and easy to read.

My favourite book from the 19th century is The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde. Others I've studied on my English course around that period include Dracula, Frankenstein, Great Expectations and The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde (another short book).

Origin of Species - C. DarwinIt has to have a story, i think....(the teacher wasn't clear about that):P

Thank you both, and feel free to suggest more books;)

Just stare her in the face if she starts bitching, and tell her that you are a creationist.
