Jr. High: I remember A Separate Peace, The House on Mango Street, and Diary of Anne Frank.
High School: Great Expectations (yuck), Count of Monte Cristo (fantastic!), lots of Shakespeare, The Sea Wolf (loved), Alas, Babylon (loved), Lost Horizon (loved), To Kill a Mockingbird, Animal Farm, Cold Mountain (yuck), Grapes of Wrath (yuck), All Quiet on the Western Front, Scarlet Letter, Wuthering Heights, Beowulf, various Ancient Greek epics and plays, etc.
I majored in English so I can't even begin to list everything. But standouts were from my courses on Arthurian Literature (everything from History of the Kings of Britain to The Once and Future King) and Tolkien (Silmarillion, LOTR, Hobbit, a biography, The Tolkien Reader).
That's all that I can remember with great clarity, apart from poems and short stories.
