Books That Shaped Me

Books are an escape for some people, and I never understood that until I needed one. So I honestly have no idea why I supplied this list, and maybe it was just to influence somebody to read something that would make them think, make them understand. The books shaped who I am today and by sharing this list, I hope that they change you. I remember being horrified reading some of these, and honestly, that is why I needed to read them. I remember crying, I remember laughing, I remember screaming, I ... remember.
So I hope you do to.
