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

I must be thick or summatI read catch 22 last year, and although I could appreciate some of the wit and general twistedness, I really didn't think it was that great.
Does it have some sort of amazing subtextual storyline? I'm not very good at discerning those. I would credit it as being the best (and probably only) book of self-contradictory humour and military in-jokes I've read. That's not really saying much though is it.
