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

Robert Anton Wilson'sbooks have had and incredible influence on my life. From the "Illuminatus Trilogy" to "Cosmic Trigger" his work never failed to make me think and question pretty much everything....never has a more true statement been written than "belief is the death of intelligence". Once you believe in something,you stop thinking about it and you end up just another one of the herd.
RAW was a man who spread ideals about love and acceptance and positive thoughts. The world could do with more people like him. His daughter was murdered in a robbery in a store in which she worked. Instead of focusing on the negative he tryed to respond "with all the positive energy I can"...the man is a constant inspiration in my life....
His books are entertaining(see operation mindfuck) and thought provoking, instightful, weird, scary, insane,comical.....he should have been president and the world would be a much better place. Hail Iris!
