OP asked for novels that changed people. I give examples and support them. I knew I’d get downvotes because Ayn Rand on HN = downvotes. I’d say if a novel elicits so much consistent response it’s already worth reading.
I didn’t find it cringy I couldn’t put it down. Especially during John Galts speech. Just brilliant if you ask me. There are cetainly things I don’t agree with but OP asked for novels that changed me.
Were taking opinions here btw, keep that mind.

The best way to get downvoted on HN is to complain about being downvoted. > I’d say if a novel elicits so much consistent response it’s already worth reading. That is a bizzare take. I'm pretty sure Mein Kapf would elicit a more consistently negative response. > Were taking opinions here btw, keep that mind. The people downvoting you are also expressing their opinion.
