As a book lover I'm always looking for my next read. I'm curious -- what books have you read that changed your life? I'm looking for books that brought you a paradigm shift and allowed you to see the world in a new and improved way. Genre unimportant.
To start, here are some of mine:
A Little Princess, by Frances Hodgson Burnett. Message for me was that imagination allows endurance and compassion means you will never be without friends.
Things Fall Apart, by Chinua Achebe. My first introduction into the chaos that culture clash can create in people.
The Complete Tightwad Gazette by Amy Dacyczyn. This was my financial "aha" book and allowed me to go on to achieve many of my goals.
Fahrenheit 451, by Ray Bradbury. As a book lover, very appropriate.
