The Best/Worst Books From This List of Classics?

Basically I need to pick one of the following books as part of my summer reading for my 12th grade AP English course. Which one(s) do you recommend and which one(s) should I absolutely avoid? (im leaning towards Passage to India right now, but I'm not sure)

Emma by Jane Austen
Tom Jones by Henry Fielding
Moll Flanders by Daniel Defoe
Robinson Crusoe by Daniel Defoe
David Copperfield by Charles Dickens
Middlemarch by Gerogie Eliot
Vanity Fair by William Makepeace Thackeray
Fathers and Sons by Ivan Turgenev
Dead Souls by Niolai Gogal
Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy
Madame Bovary by Gustave Flaubert
The Age of Innocence by Edith Wharton
Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte
Billy Budd by Herman Melville
An American Tradgedy by Theodore Dreiser
Lord Jim by Joseph Conrad
A Passage to India by E.M. Forster
To the Lighthouse by Virgina Woolf
The Unvanquished by William Faulker

sorry the list is so long!

I would recommend:

Emma, David Copperfield, Vanity Fair, Anna Karenina, and Wuthering Heights.
Emma is an easy and fun read, David Copperfield is by Dickens so that would be an educational experience :) . Vanity Fair is hilarious, to say te least. Anna Karenina is long, but very well written. Russian literature is good, especially Tolstoy. Wuthering Heights is dark, but romantic, so if that is your style I would recommend it.

I would avoid any of the books by Virginia Woolf, William Faulkner, Herman Melville. Woolf and Faulkner often write stream of conciousness novels which can be difficult, and Melville is just plain boring.
