I just read a class-difference HR that I enjoyed, although I won't change my nominations now because I'm not likely to read it again in November. I'll list it here anyway for those who like this theme, because it's a good, different and non-cliche read with complex and interesting characters. Set in 1840s England. Some of you might like to pick it up anyway. It can be read as a standalone.
The Orphan Pearl by Erin Satie
