In elementary school I started the Harry Potter series and after the 4th book I realized they weren’t really for me. That’s when I fell in love with Stephen King!

Agree - it's cliche but Harry Potter really shaped me growing up. I still think of Hermione as a role modelNisha Ward wrote: ↑02 Sep 2019, 04:10 This going to sound really cliched but the Harry Potter books helped to develop my sense of justice. Oh and Tamora Pierce's work was very much a foundational part of my formative years.

The fault in our stars by John Green is another life altering book. It simply states things that literally moves our way of thinking.
"That's the thing about pain . It demands to be felt" - the fault in our stars

I recommend The Fault in Our Stars to anyone who is searching for a book to inspire them and/or give them a good cry. Is there anyone else who was changed as a person after reading this book?

Of course, before this, I had never read a series that focused on a young orphan boy who finds out that he is a wizard, destined to defeat the evil warlock responsible for the death of his parents. The concept was so new and exciting to me that it was not hard for me to fall in love with the plot as well as the characters.
Surprisingly, these books present side characters with interesting backgrounds so detailed, which makes me happy because not all offers present side characters this way. While the stories may seem different, they are all connected and together they create the greatest story I have ever read.
