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

Please tell me you're not doing Forensic Science as a first degree?Do a pure science degree and then a FS masters.
If you don't get into the highly competetive world of forensic science, or you find out it's not for you once you try it, the years of that batchelor's degree will be WORTHLESS.
any Forensic Science company looking to employ you will have their own training courses and a good science degree will be virtually identical to a Forensic Science degree in terms of getting you an interview.
edit: I've been a bit mad there - if you want to do forensic science then by all means do the degree if you're sure, but I want to make sure you're aware of the future implications of having one. And if you have one from a course/university that's not on the approved list from the Forensic Science Society be warned that it might be a bit poo. A lot of universities rushed out courses with "forensic science" in the title to cope with demand but aren't actually any good. There's even one that did a dual honours in "Forensic Science and Food Preparation". Yes, really.
