Never actually have, but it's on my list of things to read soon, along with a ton of other books. I've added a load of the ones I saw on this thread to said list, as well.   that was my plan as well | |

Protege said: Ooh, I love this thread.
I have to say I don't read nearly enough books that are actually relevant. Thus, my list for now is brief.
The Picture of Dorian Gray - Oscar Wilde Dracula - Bram Stoker - I am serious. The Stand - Stephen King - Still serious. Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl "Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl" I forgot about this one.This one along with "Autobiography of Malcolm X" really got to me. | |

That too How could I forget that one?  I've read it so many times since I first read it at 10. I really can't believe I forgot to list that.
Others that have changed my life or viewpoint (I'm counting any viewpoint here): The Green Mile - Stephen King The Man of the Crowd - Edgar Allan Poe - It's just a short story and not a full book, and definitely a weird choice, but yeah. Of Mice and Men - John Steinbeck The Ultimate Jack the Ripper Sourcebook - Weird choice, but when I first read it, it spawned an obsession that I haven't been able to get rid of.
