"What book influenced or changed your life? How did it influence/change you?"
Well, that's kind of a hard question for me since I've never read one that has dramatically changed my life, but I like to think of each book I read as life changing or influences me. Some more than other's, like If I stay by Gayle Foreman, Before I fall by Lauren Oliver, and Looking for Alaska by John Green (mainly books about life and death). I have really bad depression and don't take pills for it because I have my friends who lifts me up whenever it hits, but whenever they aren't around or can't help, I just crack open a book and start reading and when i'm finished I feel better. Depending on what the book is about sometimes it opens my eyes to a completely different world for a split second or a day. I guess what i'm saying is everybook influences or changes my life, since most of the books I read (that aren't paranormal) helps me when the time comes to a situation that i've read about before. It makes me stop and think more about the outcomes and ect.
What book(s) have you discovered lately from someone's book blog?
hmm.. I would have to say mainly books that aren't out yet or just came out, like Clarity by Kim Harrington, Fixing Delilah by Sarah Oakler, and some others I can't think of right now.
