This book changed my life
The 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

agreed on the PKD...
.. but also try KW Jeter; eg "Dr Adder" and "The Glass Hammer"
edit: @chenobble -- I remember reading that a lot of PKD stuff was written very fast in order to pay the bills. Hence, a lot of the writing suffers; fortunately the ideas are still there.
