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 know some schemes are already in placebut we should set up some secret b3ta "drop zones" around the country, where anyone can drop off books they've already read, and find a new one. Any takers?
Then we can read more books that will change our lives....still on topic see?

@ edmundyeah its fairly active here. I go to Birmingham Uni, and there's a book lying around every day or so. That and we've got a shelf in the library of free books by bookcrossing. Maybe it's an academic thing...
