They'd be expected to read these 46 books (make it 50 because i'm certain I forgot some) two per week (most schools have around 30 weeks of classes). As they're actually interesting literature, i'm sure this won't be a problem

Jane Austen wasn't vicotrian either.
If your not including Dickens, your not understanding Victorian Britain, I therefore don't see the point in pretending to study itSpace is big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind- bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist's, but that's just peanuts to space.

Did you decide b etor?
I've read a fair amount of T Hardy (don't ask). I would go with Tess despite the negative review from Ms Firefly.
Strange Hardy would be on the list but not Dickens.
