“The book to read is not the one which thinks for you, but the one which makes you think.”
~ James McCosh
I hunger for knowledge and thirst for stimulating thought. I suppose that is why I like reading personal development, business, educational and inspirational books. They usually contain immediate life lessons you can put to use right away.
Naturally, there are many novels which would qualify as stimulating thought as well. Sure I like to read the occasional book purely for the joy of it, but I prefer a good novel that not that not only entertains, but one that teaches and causes me to question. One that leaves me with a new appreciation for life, of a new culture, a person, or with a new outlook in life.
So readers, I have a question:
- What novels have you read that stimulated your mind, changed your outlook, or caused you to appreciate life?
- What non-fiction books have you read that have done the same thing?
- What books have changed your life?
- What books stimulate your mind?
Please share them.

Dear Success Oriented Reader, Thanks for stopping by. Why don't you take a moment to introduce yourself, and join in the conversation. After all, your comments are just as important as anything I have to say myself.Perhaps you're a lurker - after all 90% of blog readers are. But then success oriented people aren't average, and I am assuming you're not average. So I'd love to know who you are and what you think. Oh, and if you haven't done so already consider subscribing to my feed or receiving updates by email so you never miss a thing. Thanks for visiting! |
