This book changed my lifeThe 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

The Power of NowA friend of mine explained that I was obsessed with the future, and recommended "The Power of Now" to help me appreciate the moment.
When I got to Waterstones I read the back, and it explained that the book has sold over 2million copies! And it cost £8.99.
In a flash I realised how the author, Eckhart Tolle had found a meaning in life - he had become richer than Croesus and his future was therefore well and truly sorted.
I made a decision there and then, and didn't buy the book. Instead, I bought 3 bottles of cheap red wine. So although I didn't change my life that day, I did change my evening.
