Can’t do just one, but here's my answer: As a child, My Friend Flicka and Thunderhead. Mustn’t forget Heidi. As a teenager, Atlas Shrugged and The Fountainhead. Lately, probably The Shack and Cross Roads. I also must put Proof of Heaven in there as well. I’m ignoring dozens of self-help books, many of which have been named in this thread. While also the Bible and its lessons are important, I’m more inclined to think that each of these has had some effect in my thinking and the molding of who I am recognizing that we all are compilations and composites of all that we’ve seen, heard, smelled, touched and heard (whoops, should be tasted). Haven’t thought about some of these books in years so, BarryRX, thanks. I love this thread.
