Book Review: The List That Changed My Life by Olivia Beirne

Using fascinating stories, Wilkerson points out that on top of race and class, our understanding of caste systems must also change if we are to better ourselves as a nation. This new collection of interviews is in many ways a sequel to that anthology, with an emphasis this time on the specific books that shaped the writing lives of the participating authors. James Carroll, on the other hand, did not discover the life-altering possibilities of reading, or writing, until he started college. I had no idea how my over-reliance on intuition was impacting my ability to think through tough problems. The authors featured in this book are some of America’s most eminent novelists, historians, poets and essayists, so I tried my hardest to prepare as thoroughly and as thoughtfully as I could for every interview.

A heart-warming story of love, family and friendship showing how just how far you would actually go for people you love and care for. I have a job that I love and have picked up hobbies I didn't have time for when I was working a soul-crushing, 50+ hour-per-week gig. Centred on an extremely relatable lead character, this book deftly balances light-hearted humour with more serious topics, resulting in a life-affirming story that hits a lot of good notes and is sure to strike a chord with any reader.

In The Book That Changed My Life, fifteen of America’s most influential authors discuss their own special literary choices. Amy challenges Georgie with a bucket list, full of things that she won't be able to do herself - they're mostly very out of Gerogie's comfort zone, so will she be able to do it for her sister? I can summarize the impact it had on me with this quote: 'The things other people have put into my head, at any rate, do not fit together nicely, are often useless and ugly, are out of proportion with one another, are out of proportion with life as it really is outside my head. And it truly has the best 'if you put your heart to it, you can do it' message of any book I’ve ever read.
