The Indian in the Cupboard |

I loved this series as a child. I minded the stereotypes of American Indians and cowboys (Americans are guilty enough of that; it's somehow worse coming from someone not from here) since I am both Texan and part Indian (Sioux, Alabama Coushatta, and Cherokee), but the story was a fascinating idea. |

I read this book while attending a snobbish school, where one of the other students made antisemitic remarks about a friend of mine whose grandmother had died in a concentration camp. The disastrous results of that episode (I got sent to the principal's office.) coupled with the book have made me sensitive about antisemitism ever since. |

This was the book that inspired me to learn to knit. One character has a hand-knit shawl which the other character admires, and an illustration featuring said shawl depicted it as so warm and fuzzy that I just had to knit one. It took years, but I eventually did it, and I loved it every bit as much as I thought I would. |

| Salinger, J. D. |
The Catcher in the Rye |
yes |
This book had more impact on me than any book I've ever read. I heard it was a classic and bought it, expecting it be full of "that David Copperfield kind of crap," but it was delightfully different. It remains relevant to this day. It sent me searching for anything else by Salinger I could find, of which there was regrettably little. I read and reread the book, to the point that it looked fifty years old. In the end I wrote an inscription in it and gave it to Kirston, the only person in ten years of loving that book I really thought would get it the way I did. |

Raise High the Roofbeam, Carpenters and Seymour: An Introduction |
yes |
I first heard about this book from Sachar's There's a Boy in the Girl's Bathroom, and I rediscovered the book when I was looking for Salinger books. This book, combined with The Catcher in the Rye, taught me everything I know. The former taught me to despise hypocrisy; the latter taught me to see the beauty in everything. |

The Jungle |
yes |
I think I first heard about this book in a history class. Either way, I was inspired to read it as a result, and it was absolutely horrifying. It sums up the entirety of my suport for the FDA. I think it's possible that this book alone had a great to deal to do with my political sentiments. |

Oil! |
yes |
Already being a fan of Sinclair because of The Jungle, this caught my eye in Barnes and Noble one evening when I was hiding from my grandfather. Or perhaps more accurately, Daniel Day Lewis's character from There Will Be Blood was on the cover, so I bought it. I set to reading it a couple of months later when I was trying to gain weight. I had to mix weight gain formula with milk and drink two of those so-called milkshakes a day. Milkshakes inevitably reminded me of the film, so I got the book out and was instantly hooked. It is definitely worth a reread. |
