Which of these books should I read first?

Question

So I went on a bit of a splurge the other day at my local bookstore and bought a lot of books that have been on my reading list for a very long time. Now that I have them, I have no idea where to begin! I keep starting a page from one book, then find myself really wanting to read the other one, and then when I read a page from that, I want to read the other, etc. I'm just too excited, so I need your help. It's all right if you haven't read the books, either, so long as you've heard great things about it. Here's the list:

Rebecca by Daphne Du Maurier
Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury
The Thirteenth Tale by Diane Setterfield
Oryx and Crake Margaret Atwood
The Ruby in the Smoke: A Sally Lockhart Mystery by Philip Pullman
Perfume by Patrick Suskind
1984 by George Orwell
Slaughterhouse-Five by Kurt Vonnegut
Charlie and the Great Glass Elevator by Roald Dahl
Peter and the Starcatchers Trilogy

Answer 2

Read something you can immediately relate to at this point in your life. If you're in the mood to read something against crazy government, read F451 or 1984. If you're in the mood to read something about good v evil & justice, read Charlie and the Great Glass Elevator.

I didnt like Slaughterhouse5.
