Read. It makes people nervous...

[reprobayt]

seferin asked me in another post what my 10 favorite books I ever read were.

This list is subject to change without notice, but off the top of my head I came up with:


The Truth Machine - James L. Halperin
Pet Semetary - Stephen King
The Stand - Stephen King
Think and Grow Rich (A Black Choice) - Dennis Kimbro and Napoleon Hill
Transmetropolitan - Warren Ellis
Rich Dad, Poor Dad - Robert Kiyosaki
Debt of Honor - Tom Clancy
Executive Orders - Tom Clancy (2 books that link together so tightly you can almost consider as one)
Great Expectations - Charles Dickens
I, Martha Adams - Pauline Glen Winslow

Most of these books were starting points. They pushed me to find other books which either confirmed or changed my thoughts on various subjects throughout my life (many with opposing views). Others showed me there were different ways of thinking. Others were just plain pure entertainment I can go back to when I need a comfortable break from reality.

What would be on your list?

Those were the first ten books that came to mind as making some kind of major difference in my life. Oh, "The Women's Room" and "The Chronicles of Narnia" deserve at least honorable mention.
