Chatting with RL friends the other day, we got talking about books that have changed our lives in some way.
I could think of lots of books that have changed the way I think about things, but not a single book has changed my life in any way.
My mother told me that "The Women's Room" changed her life and told me to read it, but reading it as a teenager in the late 80s/early 90s didn't really have the impact on me that it did on her life as a SAHM in the late 70s.
I remember reading a book about the suffragettes as a child and that certainly changed the way I viewed things but I still can't think of a book that changed my life.
Can anyone think of a single life-changing book?
