Have you ever read a book that changed your life?

I read "Advise and Consent" when I was fifteen. It was a political awakening for me.

Yes. The first book to do that was Tiger Eyes, by Judy Blume

@ProfessorPlum77 As well as for adults, she wrote some books for tweens/young teens and this was one of them. She wrote, primarily, for females, imo.

Island, by Aldous Huxley
The concept of the political, Carl Schmitt
The introduction to "The Prince" by Machiavelli
The Plague, Albert Camus
Dune (the entire series), by Frank Herbert

... All gave me headaches, and all expanded facets of my thinking.

Full Catastrophe Living by Jon Kabat-Zinn had an important influence on me when I read it in 1995. It introduced me to meditation and the foundations of mindfulness.
