As always, this meme is being hosted by Jennifer @ Crazy-for-Books.
This week's question comes from Ivan over @ Ivan Bookworm:
"What book influenced or changed your life? How did it influence/ change you?"
My answer:
The one that I think of first is Who Moved My Cheese? for Teens by Spencer Johnson. It's about four mice who find this place with a bunch of cheese. They eat like kings, but then it runs out and they have to find food. Two of the mice stay behind and wait for more cheese to appear, while the other two go out hunting for more food. Eventually, one of the mice that stayed realizes that he should just move on and stop waiting. This book was telling you that you need to be able to adjust to change without letting it bother you too much. Go with the flow, don't get mad because your BFF is moving. Ever since I read this book, I have been really trying to control my reactions to change. One of my new year's resolutions.
So what book influenced/ changed you? I'd love to know! Happy Reading!

I haven't ever heard of this book, but don't do well with change, so I probably should check it out.

This blog is an award-free zone. I simply don't have the time to pass them on. Thanks for thinking of me, though :).
