The Bible is the one book that has turned my life around completely. I was lost in darkness, but I read the bible, I have been saved, and I am on my way to heaven! Praise the Lord. Allow me to give you just a few verses.
I have loved you with an everlasting love! (God talking to me) Jeremiah 31:3
For God so loved the world that He gave His only Son (Jesus), that whoever believes in Him, may not perish but might have everlasting life. (John 3:16)
but
ALL have sinned and fallen short of God's glory (Romans 3:23)
however
I am, the way, the truth and the life. No man comes unto the Father, but by Me. (Jesus) John 14:6
If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us and cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 1 John 1:9
Therefore, He is able to save completely those who come to God through Him, because He always lives to intercede for them.
You see!

It's a romance novel by Nora Roberts titled, "Finding the Dream" about a woman who has to rebuild her life and finds love again with an unlikely man. I was about the same age as the main character (30), just lost my mom and felt my life was over. After reading the book, I resolved to change my life--I divorced an emotionally abusive husband and have lived alone since. I also realized you CAN count on your friends when times are tough. I've also found the courage to seek love from an unlikely man! That book changed my life!

In fact two books have changed my perspective on life. One title is 'Letters of Swami Vivekananda' and 'Creativity, the fourth eye : achieving professional excellence through creativity'.
One is for life and one is for work. I just can not right now give my ideas. But most people the world know the teachings of Swamiji.
The book on creativity, though not an internationally acclaimed title, tells on how some people discard their riches & luxuries for the sake of doing something worth or monumental that is useful to more people at lot whether anybody notices or not.

The top of the list would have to be the Bible, it has changed my life in more ways than I can begin to describe.
After that, would have to be How to Win Friends and Influence People by Dale Carnegie (sorry if I mis-spelled that last name.) It is an awsome book which will affect many areas of you life in relation to dealing with others and yourself.
