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

Unbearable: books that wasted my time.
The Unbearable Lightness of Being was exactly that: unbearable. Pretentious drivel masquerading as a sensitive love story. While we're at it add anything by Paul Coelho to that composting pile - that man is so friggin' preachy he can ram his novels sideways up his hole.

Agree - tedious, tedious book. Some half-assed Anna Karenina reference running like a stream of piss all the way through it.
Kundera, you twat!

R&J's book club made it onto my pet peeves list from the other week.

@Boss
I missed most of that question, did you make the Best page?
I'd like Richard to die slowly and in pain, but Judy would get hard, for no reason that I can actually think of.

@Bert
No, didn't make the best page.
I did once tell Madeley to fuck off once. We cut him up in a car in Hampstead once. He had a small attack of road rage and we told him to get to fuck. Tosser!

@Errorist
Is she the one who presented some show on E4 with her brother? He was a smug git too, just like his dad.

That's possibly the sexiest post I've ever read. It'd be like a threesome, but with only two of us!

If it's a threesome
do I have to have sex with myself?
*wonders what the difference would be*

Tough one.
I was recommended to read this by a man I vaguely knew; he waxed lyrical about it, lent me the book, I thought it was pretty good, but utterly depressing.
I ended up having a brief affair with that man. He was 16 or so years older than me, and married. It felt completely wrong (didn't know he was married when we first started), so I ended it with him very quickly.
From that point on, I just can't bear the thought of reading this book, it brings up too many bad memories, even though I liked it when I read it.
