This is a question This book changed my life

The Goat writes, "Some books have made a huge impact on my life." It's true. It wasn't until the b3ta mods read the Flashman novels that we changed from mild-mannered computer operators into heavily-whiskered copulators, poltroons and all round bastards in a well-known cavalry regiment.

What books have changed the way you think, the way you live, or just gave you a rollicking good time?

Friendly hint: A bit of background rather than just a bunch of book titles would make your stories more readable

Huck Finn?
You had me until you dissed Huck Finn. Maybe you have to be an American to get it? Definitely not a kid book, although it's used in many school curricula over here (and regularly protested/banned for it's liberal use of the n word). You might try thinking of Jim as a special kind of chav - maybe it will all be much clearer.
