BOOK The
THAT CHANGED MY LIFE 1. Piers
Morgan
HOST OF CNN’S PIERS MORGAN TONIGHT
“An Evil Cradling by Brian Keenan. He was kidnapped in Beirut and wrote about living in horrible tiny, hot, grubby cells for nearly five years, chained to a radiator. While I was reading it, I thought, ‘I’m never going to complain about anything ever again.’ I still complain, but I try to temper it.” 2. Miranda
Lambert
COUNTRY MUSIC STAR
“I loved The Hunger Games. It’s universal, makes you think, and keeps you on your toes!” 3. Aaron
Sorkin
“The Catcher in the Rye, but my runner-up is The Bonfire of the Vanities. [It is] this perfect snapshot of a moment in time. Tom Wolfe has a way of taking characters that have nothing to do with each other and making them crash into each other. That’s something I’ve always wanted to try.”
