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

hmmI don't understand how people can slam a book because they don't sympathise or identify with the protagonist. A good book doesn't have to star a likable hero as long as it can pick up on the vibe, situations and emotions of a period. It's a book about searching for yourself, but it is also a book about a particular person searching for himself. Love him or hate him you should still be able to enjoy the story and learn something from the experience.
In my opinion anyway
