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

I think you've just summed it up
Here are some more suggestions though:
Barbara Trapido - her writing is spot on.
Audrey Niffenegger's The Time Traveller's Wife is lovely
The Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold
The Red Tent by Anita Diamant is a wonderful book (save it for when you're feeling all feministy again)
And I really like Philippa Gregory's books too.
Your turn to recommend something, I'm nearly at the end of my current book (which is Harry Potter 5... sorry...)
