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

My own book was an OK detective story based in Edinburgh, written round about 1992-96. Round abou the time that some other bugger called Rankin was starting to get traction with a character called Rebus. At the time, I'd not heard of him.
Not bitter or complaining - he got there first, and he's a *much* better writer than me, but I do find it a giggle that the two came along at once.
