Re: Books that inspired you

Anything by Terry Pratchett, with Night Watch being my favorite. He's a hilarious writer and I'd highly advise his books to anyone over the age of 13 (they're not inappropriate, but they would probably confuse younger readers).

I've actually tried to read the bible before, but have sort of stalled on exodus (heh...fail, but I read through all of the gospels). I was amazed at the number of inappropriate scenes in Genesis. Never would have thought that.
