Persepolis?
Looks good.
I would suggest
Pride and Prejudice
The Prince and the Pauper
Jane Eyre
(but avoid Wide Sargasso Sea
)
Little Women
Washington Square
The Glass Menagerie (if you want plays)
The Secret Garden
Ann of Green Gables
The Stranger
Some of Borges' short stories (The Circular Ruins, Funes the Memorious, The Immortal, The Zahir)
Love in the Time of Cholera is awesome but will get you kicked out of masjid.
More plays: Hedda Gabler, The Doll's House, The Lady from the Sea...the aunties will have your head though, because there's going to be a lot of girls who suddenly stop talking about how much they want to get married.
Another old standby is a short story called The Yellow Wallpaper. Same warning as above.
The Metamorphosis
O. Henry short stories
Sorry, I added stuff about 5 times.
