Night is a great one. One of those books I picked up and didn't put down until I'd finished it. (The other one of similar vintage is Slaughterhouse Five by Kurt Vonnegut.) I need far more than 15.

Same here. The day we were given Night to read in class when I was in 8th grade, I went home and read the entire thing in one sitting. I had to know what was going to happen; how it was going to end.

I remember reading Night in school too, I don't remember which grade though.
