I take the train to work so I have some built-in reading time everyday! It's not much, but it all adds up.
That, and I don't really go out much so I have more free time on weekends to catch up on reading.

I'm not a huge sci-fi reader but I absolutely love Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury! It's amazingly prescient and a fantastic love letter to the written word as well.

Hmm... that's a really tough question. I was about to say that I have no idea, but I realised that part of the reason why I'm in Japan right now is because I read Shusaku Endo's Silence, so I shall choose that.
Silence is a story concerning the kakure Christians of Japan, and was one of the stories that year which moved me deeply. Normally, it would just end like that, but I also went on my first trip to Japan later that year, and that made me want to study in Japan. The rest is history.
It was one of the two books I analysed for my EE as well, so yeah, I guess it's made a very big impact. (At least, in terms of a measurable impact)
