I need a novel short enough to read in 2 days. I need to do an oral on it, so preferably not anything lovey or gross but a good book.
 
Animal Farm by George Orwell is a really good novel and is pretty short with only 176 pages.
You can also find it online and there are loads of resources to help you with your oral.
 
Political/Historical = 'The Road of Bones' by Anne Fine
An excellent book set in a sort-of Stalinist Russia.

Classic = Of Mice and Men
The book isn't very long , and everyone in school will read it eventually for the most part anyway. Great story and good moral standing on many things.
 
Running out of Time. It's about a girl who think she's living in 1840, but it's actually 1996 and children are dying in her village so her mother tells her the truth that it really is 1996 and she sends her out into the world to get help.

This is the book that The Village movie was copied from. I got it for my daughter and I ended up reading it. It goes very fast.
