I've never heard of the first one, and I go to a "middle/high school in an English speaking country". And I've never read Pride and Prejudice because, honestly, it sounds like a terrible book.
Border Reiver:
Anne of Green Gables , Written by Lucy Maude Montgomery, is an icon of Cdn literature, and is quite popular here in the Great White North, and also in Japan.
I never had to read it in school, but many of my female classmates did. At the time they discovered Anne, I discovered The Hobbit....
It was also a long running TV series on CBC with its sequel - Return to Avonlea.
AnthroMV:
"A Dirty Job - Christopher Moore"
I read it a little while ago and I loved it! The main character Charlie Asher is kind of a pushover until he's recruited as the position of "Death" everywhere he goes people are dying and strange voices whisper to him from the gutters.
Dimmukane:
Really? I have cousins in PA who didn't know there was a book when they saw the movie. One's a senior in high school, the other's a sophomore.

I think the only real loser is the public education system in the United States. What ever happened to reading quality literature. Maybe some of you kids would read this stuff if they made a manga about it.
