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

James Herbert........I was never a great lover of books in school but managed to read a few before leaving.
At 17 I had the misfortune to get a whopping fine from her majesties courts for getting caught driving a motorbike without relevant legal documents,ended up doing 3 months clink for non payment.
During this time I was handed a book called Domain (part of the rats trilogy)by said author,which shit me a bit,so I eventually found and read all his books over the coming months and years.
The book that changed my life? FLUKE, not many books have brought a tear to my eye and a warm glow to my heart but when I put it down after I felt all the better for reading it.
Never been able to look at a dog in quite the same way since.
Anyone get the chance to read it, please do.
