Elie Wiesel's personal account of the holocaust literally changed my life, I'd never read a detailed personal account of the holocaust before and it is a book everybody should read, It's such a quick read most people finish it in one day, it's hard to put down so it's good that it's not that long. It makes you have a completely diff prespective on humanity, the holocaust, the way I behaved towards others and throughout my day. I never would have thought of becoming a teacher and I had changed majors pretty much every semester which got me nowhere but nothing ever seemed to fit quite right. after reading night I decided I wanted to try something that would make a difference, I'm almost done with school but I work with kids at a daycare b/c I love it so much I don't want to get a job doing anything else ever. I'm actually good with them this is the only job I've ever thought I've been good at. Anyway you should read it he's an amazing person.
