Well, I used to really hate Harry Potter and questioned why was he ever introduced. But after I saw the 4th movie, which I didn't want to see but seeing how my dad got it, I felt like Harry Potter is cool. And I can't wait for the 5th movie and the book! I have a lot of info on Harry Potter! Like Snape's last name is from a town. Here's my current quest: Help me fufill my dream!

A ton of my friends all read the Perks of Being a Wallflower, then we all had a night where we rented a cabin and talked about the book off-and-on. We often got off-course because we kept going into our own stories or off on some phillisophocal rant, and it was awesome. I think by the time we left we were all a bit more in-tune to each other. Plus, for anyone who read the book, we went on late night walks and the sky was so clear it was amazing, and we eventually just lay there for an hour or two on the ground, and we felt infinate.

I don't think any book has ever changed my life, but I've become obsessed with Harry Potter ever since I read the first book.

No book has ever changed my life besides making me smarter. I dont really read true stories that often since I live in reality, I dont care to read about it.

I read this book called Dancing with an Alien, it has given me new perspective on life, I feel it has changed how I look upon things, because in this book he had to leave her, to go back to his planet yet he loved her so much and knew she wouldn't be happy where he lived. It makes me really think, that there is a possibility to find someone so incredible even with he has to leave.

Well, I've always depended on books. I don't exactly have an easy life, I'm like cinderella haha. My family doesn't like me and has no problem telling me so and I do all the work. So being able to read and really get into a book makes it easier to forget whats going on and ignoring my screaming mother. Books and the fact that I have really great friends makes it so my lifes not too bad.
But if I were to pick one book that actually changed my life because of what it said- not just 'cause it was something to get lost in- I'd have to say it was the Twilight series by Stephenie Meyer, because the main character Bella, is alot like me (looks, personality, clumsiness, sleep-talking...ok so she's exactly like me for the most part sweatdrop ) and reading those books has affected me alot.
I can't really explain why though...its complicated.

Reading stuff means you know more stuff, which DOES change you because being smarter means more successful. At least for me it has.

Evolution. Me & Other Freaks of nature.
Because IT has Religion and Evolution in one book. I Always thought that if you belived in the theory of Evolution you didnt belive in god. but in this book Mena demolishes this theory. I can now belive in God and Evolution thanks to Robin Brande. This book is definatly reccomened even if your not a Christian or if your one of those strict ones, Like the main character. this book is amazing and it is the First on Robin ever wrote and i hope to see more from her.

I used to be a total "follower" then I found Harry Potter. It introduced me to a different better side of life. I am now "heathfully" obsessed with it and now tons of info about it.
