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

Don't take this the wrong way butdo you actually cook with them?
My go-to cookbook is... er... these days it's the internet, but I started out with something called the Good Cheap Cookbook. Published by Woman's Day, it's butcher's paper with 1970's Aussie recipes - sounds awful, and is, but contains the basics, such as pancakes, white sauce, soup etc. Nowadays I am a culinary genius and don't need it, except when I feel the urge to make pancakes and forget how much egg to flour to milk there should be. I like Delia Smith a lot, though.
