Hemingway, The Old Man and the Sea, 7th grade.

Grabbed it off the shelf because it looked short and I needed to do a book report the next day.

Also, the questions the teacher asked me the next day taught me to think about the deeper meaning of Hemingway's, or any, story. IOW, it was more than just a great tale about an old man catching a big fish and trying to get it home.

Gullivers travel in 3rd grade (kid book). The Hobbit in 7th grade kinda awakened that love for reading again.
