My high school class read "A Seperate Peace" by John Knowles. I haven't re-read it yet but I do have a copy around here somewhere I think.

I'm enjoying rereading books from my childhood and helping my daughter see the beauty of well written literature.

Slaughter House Five was first assigned to me in high school and it is the only assigned book I ever reread on my own. I've read it at least five or six times. Just about everything I've ever read by Kurt Vonnegut qualifies for classic status.
