This is a question 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

Stovold's Mornington Crescent Almanac.
Which changed my life by teaching me how to avoid being caught in knip when placed in a diagonal move from Marble Arch to the Embankment, by invoking Snorgenbourg's 4th Variation Strategem which immediately places all other players in Spoon.

It allowed me to progress to the finals where I proudly won the runner up prize in the Armitage Shanks Commonwealth finals, narrowly beaten by a certain Mrs. Trellis of North Wales, who cunningly played Gore's looping manoeuvre at Elephant & Castle, allowing progression straight to Mornington Crescent, avoiding the engineering works at Piccadilly Circus
