As you all may know I work for one of my favourite companies ever, Waterstones. This year they are running a campaign for people to recall "The book that made me".
Books are powerful things, they introduce us to new things, give us courage and make us believe things we wouldn't have before. Some books save people, some books change people. Everyone has a book that makes them who they are today.
Waterstones are looking for everyone to share their story of the book that made them. Everyone from authors to booksellers and the public are being urged to indulge in the world of literature to share their story.
The book that made me was "The Perks Of Being A Wallflower". I've spoken all about it before but it helped me through one of the toughest times of my life. It is also a book that I return to whatever is going on as I know that I will finish it feeling optimistic and knowing that everything is going to be okay.
Please share your story, spread the word and maybe your book could be someone elses.
