Try this: (in class with books that they read)
"Copy a sentence on page 42 and explain what it has to do with the story."

Why not forget plagiarism and general mundane issues, and ask them for 
instance to write a story/poem/perform a segment, etc. based on the book/its 
message/characters/title - as long as they read, who cares what they do...:)
In my class, the less creative ones can list 10-20 new words that they've 
encountered and using them make up a story or article or whatever they wish.

reports, I want to consider having my students do their book reports in
class as a quiz.  I did this once before, and I asked them the typical
questions regarding the setting, story analysis (conflict, climax and
resolution), along with one character analysis.  However, I would like to
consider something different.  Does anyone have any other ideas, or any
other solutions?
