many..wheels of time, LOR etc

YeaaaaI'm adding you because you said FREAKING wheel of TIME!! and your name is Rand Al' Thor.. >.>

HP did have an effect on me, and I hated when it ended but most influential for me would be
Anything by Charles Dickens, every story had a moral
To Kill a Mockingbird
Taming of the Shrew-Shakespare (This book made me so bloody well heated in English Lit.. I hated how women were viewed in the old days.
And Perks of being a Wallflower.. to me the way he viewed just about everything was beutiful

Funny thing is, I gave this book to my cousin as a birthday present.
Remained on the bookshelf for months,
One day, I have nothing to read, I picked up this one.
And became my answer to your thread.

The Prince of Thorns & its sequel 'The King of Thorns'.
Lawrence's language pulled me in.

The Alchemist is one of the best books I have ever read .A really inspirational story of a young boy who travels the world for sake of treasure and adventure.

Animal Farm without a doubt. For a book about animals this book is very deep.
