If you love reading, you already know that books can be seriously powerful. And sometimes, the pages of a memoir, non-fiction piece, or novel can actually change your life in a big or small way.
So I want to know: What's a book that has impacted the way you think, feel, or see the world?

Maybe reading Educated by Tara Westover actually spurred you to finish high school, apply to college or go for that graduate degree you'd been on the fence about.

Or perhaps after devouring Everything I Know About Love by Dolly Alderton, you finally gained the will and courage to get out of a toxic relationship.

Maybe after reading Into the Wild by Jon Krakauer, you decided to give up your everyday comforts to take a once-in-a-lifetime adventure.

Or perhaps you loved Maybe You Should Talk to Someone by Lori Gottlieb so much that it convinced you to seek therapy, something you'd always been thinking about.

There are so many ways — both big and small — that a book can change your life, the way you perceive others, the way you see yourself, and how you look at the world around you. So tell me: what's a book that changed your life in one way or another? Drop them into the comments below, and your responses could be featured in a BuzzFeed Community post.
