Well, every book changes your life, but this is about that 16-20 phase where everything that goes on seems extra-important. So, here's some books that blew my mind as a young adult: Finishing The Hat Figures Traced In Light The Frodo Franchise The Assistant Love's Labours Lost The Sound of Broadway Music The Boy Next Door Two on a Tower Empire Falls

I have a little story about Empire Falls: the main character is called Miles, and I honestly thought that he was Black until around two-thirds through that story. Great book, though. Pulitzer winner. All of Russo's books are winners, though most of them tell more or less the same plot of urban decay.
