First book that I ever took out of the Adult section of the library. Had no idea at the time that it wasn't your average adult section book.       :D      
 
 Last Exit To Brooklyn
 
 When you get to the page, click on the book and you can read the first several pages. Flawd, you have to wait another year.       ;)     (j/k - I was even younger when I read it.)
 
 My second book was One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest. Read both many years before the movies.
 
 Believe me, after that, my life was changed for good! Turned into a major bookworm and never turned back.

Didn't so much change my life as much as really help me understand that it could still be cool to read books; "On The Road" Jack Kerouac

Watership Down.  The first big book I read as a kid with no pictures and over 300 pages long.  For years I would reread the book annually.  Haven't in a while, but should.
