Which book?

Out of a list of about 200 books that I can read for my AP english class, I narrowed it down to about 4 books. The only problem is now I cant choose between the two and I have to know which i am reading by tommorow!My choices are:The Things They CarriedAll Quiet on the Western FrontSlaughter House FiveBrave New World Which book?
Brave New World...excellent bookWhich book?
I've never read any of them, but I like westerns so I will pick ''All Quiet on the Western Front'' because it has Western in it. :P

I'd choose slaughter house five becuase it sounds brutal. :P
Brave New World, it's absolutely amazing.
Definitely Brave New World.Slaughterhouse Five is good too, if you like black humor.

That or you didn't read what I typed correctly... I said because it had Western in the title... not because it was a western book ;)
The only one Ive read on that list is The Things They Carried and I really enjoyed it.
All quiet on the western front, good ww1 book. I believe there is a movie on it that is good too.
Brave New World. Then read The Island.

All Quiet on the Western Front was fantastic.  The Things They Carried, on the other hand, was terrible.  I haven't read the other two books.[QUOTE][/QUOTE]

I also said I had never read them, so of course I didn't know what it was about, which is why I said I picked it because it had Western in the title because I like Westerns, not because I thought it was a western book. But thank you for the information. :) Oh and you are right, I don't watch alot of movies either, I usually read or surf on here instead of watching tv or movies.

Brave New World changed my life, man. Huxley was prophet for our times. Read it, and then reexamine how our materialistic world has not only deprived our lives of any meaning, but has also kept us apathetic to that fact. Scariest book I've ever read. Thank God we have Chuck Palahniuk to help us realize the evils of rampant consumerism. Fight Club meets tomorrow; anybody going?
I've never read any of them
