Books we read in a German Gymnasium (151 books)

I attended a German Gymnasium from 1981-1989 and found out that I quite liked some of the books I HAD to read there - others, not too much... - So, now I am curious to learn which books you read or are currently reading in German schools...
Ich bin von 1981-1989 auf ein deutsches Gymnasium gegangen, und im Deutsch- und Englischunterricht haben wir unterschiedliche Lektüren gelesen - manche haben mir gefallen, manche nicht. Und jetzt bin ich gespannt, was Ihr so in der Schule gelesen habt oder augenblicklich lest.
