So /lit/ I have a question for you all how did books change your life or rather what book changed your life? Reading has made me feel a certain happiness and has filled the void I have been feeling in my life since my early teens. Mine was "Stoner" by John Williams
Anthem by Rand. I read it at a time when I was searching desperately for a purpose for life, and it gave me one. Even if you don't like Rand's later works, or have heard a lot of hate for her, I would recommend Anthem.
Should I read Stoner? You guys always recomend it but don't really say why.

This for me as well. I've had a lot of intellectual/spiritual development from reading as well, especially Dostoevsky's works.

I read my own book and realized I'm addicted to cocaine and my friend group is toxic and shallow, and, furthermore, that my whole college experience has been a net-loss to my development as a well-adjusted human being; I hate private school and I have massive regrets in life.I'm the happiest I've ever been, and I'm not even in love
