"The Purpose Driven Life" by Rick Warren, I actually haven' finished reading the book because I learned to be unafraid of death and I just don't want anything altering that.

Jack Kerouac (pronounced [dʒak ˈkɛrʊæk]) (March 12, 1922 – October 21, 1969) was an American novelist, writer, poet, artist, and part of the Beat Generation. While enjoying popular but little critical success during his own lifetime, Kerouac is now considered one of America's most important authors. The spontaneous, confessional prose style inspired other writers, including Tom Robbins, Richard Brautigan, Hunter S. Thompson, Ken Kesey, Tom Waits and Bob Dylan. Kerouac's best known works are On the Road, The Dharma Bums and Big Sur.

He divided most of his adult life between roaming the vast American landscape and living with his mother. Faced with a changing country, Kerouac sought to find his place, eventually bringing him to reject the values of the fifties. His writing often reflects a desire to break free from society's mold and to find meaning in life. This search may have led him to experiment with drugs (he used alcohol, psilocybin, marijuana, and benzedrine, among others to study spiritual teachings such as Buddhism) and to embark on trips around the world. His books are often credited as the catalyst for the 1960s counterculture.

Kerouac died in St. Petersburg, Florida at the age of forty-seven from an internal hemorrhage thought to have been caused by alcoholism.

The World According to Garp definitly changed my life. It was written by John Irving, one of the best-known American author. I don't really know how this book changed my life but it did. I read it one year ago but still I think of it with much love, the story of the life of S.T Garp and his relatives really changed some opinions I had towards life.
I really suggest you to read it if you haven't already, it's really really good.

Life changing is probably a little bit strong, but the Belgarion series of books by David Eddings are extremely good. The are of a similar genere to Lord of the Rings, but in my opinion better in every way.

One book that did make me think about things in a different was was a book called 'The Truth About Roswell', written by the Colonel who was in charge of the 'cover-up'. Its weird, but I read the book once a few years ago, & have never been able to find any trace of it since, either online or in the real world. It explained some good points - the arrival of night vision, microwaves etc, all things that are common now but technology that appeared almost overnight in the 50s.

If you ever come across it I recommend you read it, it might change your opinion on a few things.
