Books on the AP Literature Open-Ended Essay 1971-2022 - Page 5

All the books that (I believe) have been included on the AP Literature Open-Ended Essay from 1971-2022.
Some of these books have only appeared once or twice.... others (like Wuthering Heights or Great Expectations) appear over and over again. Some authors, like Shakespeare, are also likely to be represented yearly.
BEST OF LUCK to all students taking the exam this year!!!!
