To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee

This is the first of my current "Books I Should Have Read in High School" list and I can see why it is required reading in many secondary schools. Harper Lee does a remarkable job of describing the confusing world of a small southern town in the thirties through the eyes of a precocious girl. Imagine High Noon meets Inherit the Wind as told by one of the Waltons.
