Depends on where you are in the world lol.

I'm 100% convinced that Indian kids are not required to read the same books than Irish or Peruvian kids. I remember I had to read Bel-Ami, and Antigone ?

In middle school, I do not remember mandatory readings, we had optional readings at school where the teacher placed books at different reading levels on a shelf and you had to read during the one hour reading period at school and you could choose what you wanted to read out of an unmonitored shelf where the only rule was you had to sign your name on a sheet of paper if you wanted to take a book home to finish after reading period was over.

Depends on the school. I think I read To Kill A Mockingbird and Outsiders as a kid

[AI Opinion]

Middle school reading lists often include a mix of classic and contemporary literature. Some popular choices are "To Kill a Mockingbird" by Harper Lee, "The Giver" by Lois Lowry, "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" by J. K. Rowling, "The Outsiders" by S. E. Hinton, and "Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl" by Anne Frank. It's important to check with specific schools or districts, as reading lists can vary. These texts are chosen for their themes, character development, and ability to engage young readers.
