For me reading the Tao Te Ching was a game changer. Some of the ideas in that book really changed my perspective on things.

    When I was 13 I saw a book called “The eight” in the library and liked the summary. It was a big “adult” book and I thought at the time It will be boring to read big book like that. Well, I finish it in a week and loved it so much that books became a passion. One year later I had read all Sherlock Holmes collection of stories and books and even Lovecraft stories, which is not easy for a 13yo to understand. That book made me an adult reader and I still love it to this day. Which we had a tv series about it.
