The choice has to be with your own interests.
However, if you limit yourself to before 1550, Fahrenheit 451 does not fit.
Since I am not familiar with these specific books, I cannot give you information about their difficulty levels.
I hope this helps a little. Thanks for asking.
For summer reading i have to chose a fiction book, at 9th grade level or above and a global historial book (not usa) from paleolithic to 1550 AD. For global i have a list:

A World Only lit by Fire

The Queens of Henry 6th
Also, I do well in both Social Studies and English, so would like both books to be a challenge for me. Thanks so much.
