What books changed how you think?

1. A Prayer For Owen Meany by John Irving

There's a lot of discussion on the nature of faith and God in this one.

2. The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (series)

Douglas Adams' sense of humour is a big influence on me. And he has a lot of absurdist takes on what are ultimately big questions.

3. God's Debris

Lots of God questions in the list so far, but to paraphrase the previous entry isn't that the ultimate question of 'Life, The Universe and Everything'

4. Sapiens By Yuval Noah Harari

5. The Alchemist by Paolo Coelho

6. The 4-Hour Workweek by Tim Ferriss

7. V for Vendetta by Alan Moore

Any Alan Moore could probably qualify

8. Not Dead and Not For Sale - Scott Weiland

It gave me a more sympathetic view of addiction.

9. Snow Crash by Neal Stephenson

I think this just twisted my perception of what a novel could be.

10. Black Beauty by Anna Sewell

The first book I ever put down. I felt bad about it, but I was a kid who read voraciously, and I had always finished every book - but if you're really not enjoying yourself (and it's not a school assignment), why bother?
