The Unbearable Lightness of Being by Milan Kundera
Out by Natsuo Kirino
I Have the Right to Destroy Myself by Kim Young Ha

They've probably influenced my writing style, I would think.

@Soossie An alright writer, although I was interested more in his characters than in his actual stories. But my older sister gave me some of his books when I was in the 5th grade and I thought they were the strangest thing, since my tastes at the time were nothing like that.
He is an alright character, indeed.. but his The Unbearable Lightness of Being was one masterpiece exactly because of the characters he created in there ... my favorite was Sabina ... she was everything that I wanted to be when I was 18 years old..
Thus Spoke Zarathustra, and beyond good and evil, both by Nietzsche

Damian, by Hermann Hesse

The Labyrinth of Solitude by Octavio Paz

Crime and Punishment by Dostoyevsky

The Devil and the Good Lord by John Paul Starter

I think the "Mark of the lion series" by Francine Rivers. It was about religion, compassion, love, courage and being humble at all times. I so love her books 😍
