i'm not asking for teen fiction (i've read plenty). i'm asking for life-changing, meaningful books that you read when you were younger that stayed with you for life. some of the books that have had a profound effect on me personally include: the road – cormac mccarthy; a prayer for owen meany – john irving; siddharta – herman hesse; a handmaid’s tale – margaret atwood; the picture of dorian gray – oscar wilde; circe – madeline miller; and 1984 – george orwell. so if you could recommend some books in a similar vein, that are considered classics or must-reads that really defined you as a young person. thank you

Metamorphosis by Kafka completely “transformed” me.
