Suggestions of books to compare for English coursework?

For my English A level I have to choose two books myself to write a comparative essay on. Although some books that I've read might be suitable, I can't think of two that would go well together. I'm not sure how similar they're meant to be but I suppose they have to overlap in some areas.

If it helps here are some books I've read recently, but please feel free to suggest others:
A Room with a View- E.M Forster
Spies- Michael Frayn
Oranges are not the Only Fruit- Jeanette Winterson
Enduring Love- Ian McEwan
Purple Hibiscus- Chimanda Ngozi Adichie
Small Island- Andrea Levy
currently reading Nineteen Eighty-Four
...that's all I can think of right now, those are fresh in my mind

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker

Since you read 1984, try another dystopian novel such as Brave New World or The Handmaid's Tale. Compare and contrast the dictatorship of 1984 with the religious society of The Handmaid's Tale or the capitalism and consumerism gone amok in Brave New World.
