Default Books that have changed your life

What have you read, both fiction or non fiction, that has had an effect on the way you now think? I don't mean a book you just couln't put down because it was a good read but one that has changed your thinking in some way.

I read a book not so long ago by Carol Adrienne called When Life changes or you wish it would. For some reason this book really struck a chord with me and has prompted me to try to change my behaviour and thinking.

No, I left it beside the bed and when I got up in the morning I banged my toe on it, made me be a bit tidier in life, and now i limp a bit too.
