You've GOT to Read This Book!: 55 People Tell the Story of the Book That Changed Their Life

Recently my wife, Anu got the following book from the library. I had the chance to read few chapters from the book and it was very interesting reading.

The book explores the stories of the books that changed the lives of some of the notable people.

This prompted me to share with all of you the books/writings (crux of this blog) which have influenced me in my life and more importantly explore from my friends and family and know what have influenced them. This way, not only I would know what books/writings shaped your lives but more imprtantly help me know all of you better. It would be a priviledge if you share your experiences with me.

Regards,

Manish Desai.
