What is the Most Inspiring Book You Have Read?

[kissmesweet]

I wanna make a bad joke and say 'Harry Potter', but I'll save that for some other time.

P.S. I Love You --- Cecilia Ahern's debut novel is beautifully written and absolutely amazing! I can actually feel Holly's pain and excitement in the book. The feelings of love and death are described painfully true in this book.

Jemima J by Jane Green. For people overweight & skinny.. shows you both perspectives. I inspired me to start eating healthy + work out more.

Anderson Cooper - Dispatches from the Edge.

Thanks Mr. Cooper, for making me feel a fraction of those pure emotions that you have felt.

The Vampire Lestat. The way Anne Rice uses description is just fantastic, and she really paints a picture of the scene.

 

[TanyaKiller]

What really did it for me was The Unbearable Lightness of the Being, it really made me understand love and the human nature better and it really resonated in me if you know what I mean. Many of the situtations described on the book, I identified with, it was just the perfect book at the right time and right place.

I have, it's a good read!

As for me, 1984 by George Orwell was fantastic.
