View original postJust read an article about "life-changing" books.....sorry, can't link it was in a magazine. So, here are a few questions:
View original post1. Has a book ever "changed" your life? If yes what, and in what way?
If it wasn't for WoT then I most likely wouldn't have met my husband, so there's that.
Directly, I don't think so, although I remember being very profoundly moved by The Blue Flower by Penelope Fitzgerald, and I suspect that reading Snow Falling on Cedars for English at school helped me decide to study literature at university.
View original post2. Assuming you don't have an answer to #1, what book influenced you the most?
The Bible, simply.
Oh, and A Room With A View by EM Forster, because that book really made me want to travel to see Europe and now I live in the UK.
View original post3. For pure entertainment value, what is your favorite book of all-time?
Either A Room With A View or Possession by AS Byatt. For series it's The Wars of Light and Shadow by Janny Wurts.

To the extent that any book did that, I'd say "The Everlasting Man" and Thomas Sowell's books

Indirectly certainly.
