This is a question 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

My top ten books.
www.amazon.co.uk/Books-of-importance/lm/2E2QDMORB1ZF2/ref=cm_lm_byauthor_title_full
Is my list on Amazon, specifically:

Catch 22
American Psycho
1984
The Crow Road (and many other Iain Banks')
Consider Phlebas (and other Iain M.'s, use of Weapons is excellent),
His Dark Materials
The work of Nietzsche
The Secret History (Donna Tarrt)
Lots of JG Ballard but High Rise is my pick
Microserfs (Douglas Coupland)
Moby Dick- I don't blame anyone who skips the boring bits.

Microserfs was really good.
I just wish my mother would find where she left my copy so she can return it to me. I keep having to replace books because I've lent them to that woman.
