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

Glamorama by Brett Easton Ellis
This isn't a book that changed my view of the world, nor did it have a profound effect on how I live my life.

It did, however, change the way I viewed story writing, and did so for the better.

I was blown away by the unhinged flow of the story; the constant subversion of reality and the fact that you could feel the terror the narrator was going through as confusion reigned throughout.

I think it's the only book that I've restarted as soon as I'd finished it.
