50 Books That Changed MM

Here is my list of fifty books that undeniably left a mark in who I am today. In alphabetical order, and to some degree randomly collected, the titles are illustrative of the variety of literary works --mostly fiction-- that have come my way. These are the result of a one-sitting exercise of recollecting authors whose books impacted me with pleasure and personal growth. However, I wouldn't be surprised to find myself editing this list tomorrow, that's just how things are.
