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.
