Recently, I came across a writing prompt asking you to list three books that have impacted you and why. Maybe I am overthinking it, but I found it difficult to answer this question immediately. I need to put more thought into this because I do not think I have only three books. I can review the series of books I have read, and the ones for entertainment that I have enjoyed are The Millenium Series by Stieg Larsson, who was the original author but passed away, and other authors continued the series. Secondly, I read The Cormoron Strike Series by Robert Galbraith, and I have also enjoyed the television adaptations of this series. Thirdly, The Chief Inspector Gamache series by Louise Penny also had a television adaptation, which I enjoyed. Finally, one of my favorites is The Shetland series by Ann Cleeves, which I enjoyed so much it makes me want to travel to the United Kingdom just to experience the Shetland Islands.
There are many other books that I have read for enlightenment, self-help, etc. I can also say The Bible, but I do not consider that just a regular book. To me, it is not a book that I can read cover to cover and be done and set it aside. It is an instruction manual for life that I have yet to grasp and probably never will. I continue to read and study to seek guidance, wisdom, strength, peace, and, hopefully, understanding.
I still need to ponder this question because I know I need to add many more books to this list, but in the meantime, I ask you what books have impacted you?
