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

The book.....that changed my life, was the one I wrote.
I would link to it on amazon, but then my precious B3TA anonimity would be gone forever, but I did write one, honest I did.
Anyway, cos of writing I met my current girlfriend who is perfect in every way and makes me happier than I've ever been, and we're getting a place together soon.
And then it got really silly and we've written a book together, and it's on shelves in September. Oh, and I've got my second book out next month which I wrote all on my own with hardly any plagiarism at all.
Er, except I can tell you which one it is either, cos then, y'know, B3TA, anonymity, all that....
I'm not very good at this publicity malarky - my publisher hates me.

Reminds me of something......... that one of my first bosses, a former US Army captain, told me was common wisdom in that service:
"Blow your own horn or someone will shove it up your ass"
Why so shy? Tell us what the book is!

you could havepretended it was your "friend" who wrote it.
If you tell us, I'll send you my publication list of dreary, dry, maths-filled, rambling academic journal papers. There's an incentive.
