"Here at The Verge, we try to help our readers by offering news, reviews, and analyses about tech and its relationship to how we live. But one of the things that can most affect our lives is books. Whether they're fiction or factual, whether they're fun or philosophical, whether they offer a story or a recipe, books can impact us in a variety of different - and important - ways."
"We asked the staff about a book they'd read that impacted their life or outlook in some significant way. Interestingly, several of the books were read when they were young, and two were cookbooks. What follows are the books that they chose, along with an explanation of what made it important. (For each entry below, we offer links to where you can purchase a paperback, a hard cover, or an ebook version."
Books have the power to affect lives in profound and varied ways, whether through fiction, factual works, recipes, or philosophy. Several impactful books were encountered during childhood, influencing long-term outlooks. Two notably influential entries were cookbooks that changed habits or approaches to food. Contributors selected seven books that left lasting impressions and explained why each mattered. Purchase options include paperback, hard cover, and ebook formats. For those on a budget, libraries and digital lending apps such as Libby, plus browser extensions that check local library availability, provide accessible alternatives.
