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

You are right
that studying books in school ruins most of them. My English class in year 10 was told to read Lord of the Flies over summer, so we could study it afterwards. And I, being pretty much the only literate one in the group, was the only one to do so. And I really liked it, until we went over it in mind numbing detail, and since then it has lost all of it's appeal.
