BuzzFeed Community Recommends Life-Changing Books

"If you love to read like I do, you already know how powerful an amazing book can be. In fact, some books are so poignant they can actually alter the way we see ourselves, change the way we view the world around us, and inspire us to make a change. So I asked the BuzzFeed Community to tell me about a life-changing book — any work of literature that made a lasting impact on the reader, big or small."
