Magpie's Books That Shaped Her - Page 2

These are the books (that I could remember) that have shaped me, influenced me or my writing, or in some way stayed with me.
Notes: the first book in a series means the whole series; I chose one by Agatha Christie and one by Stephen King to include the whole of their work as an influence; when there are books from the middle of a series it means those particular books made the most impression. I've included the Greek translation of The Secret History, because that's the one I read. (I also read the Greek translation of the Picture of Dorian Gray but couldn't find it here and couldn't be arsed to upload it.)
