The Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger
It was the first book I read in one sitting, and that was the day I decided to add English as a second major.

The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky
It helped me realize other people are shy, love will hurt you, and true friends are where it's at.
