This is a part discussion, part recommendation thread! I frequently come across threads and comments all over the internet discussing this very topic for a variety of mediums, but people have a habit of either straight up spoiling the 'story' (of said game/media/book/etc) for the poor guys who stumble upon the comment, or being too vague as to not get other people interested in trying said story. I'll be honest, I have read a lot of stinkers of books lately, and I'm looking for a pallette cleanser (and hopefully, other people can find this thread useful, too 
)
)- Has there been one or more books you have read that has affected during or after you have finished reading it? For example, did it leave you feeling empty for a period of time, or did it leave such a positive impact that it changed the way you lived your life? (I.E: Was the author successful in getting you very invested in their story?)
- Are you able to get into detail about how/why it left such an impact without spoiling it? You don't have to get into details if you don't want to, being vague is good enough!
- Is it a book you would be able or willing to recommend to a stranger, a friend, and someone close to you?
- This is more of an extension of #3, but is the book accessible to everyone, or does it have a trait/characteristic that makes it more of an acquired taste or only accessible to college level readers? Is there a characteristic that makes enjoyment or important details in said book untranslatable?
- Has the author published any other works you liked and enjoyed, even if it wasn't as good as the one you specified?
- This is a miscellaneous prompt! Add anything you would like to!
