Day 26 - A book that changed yoru mind about something

Well, not really.

26. A book that changed your mind about something

Johnny Got His Gun by Dalton Trumbo

This book was probably instrumental in sealing my belief that war is simply not an option. This is a book that you cannot read without being affected in some way. It is the story of John Bonham, whose wounds have taken all his limbs and his face while his mind functions perfectly within the prison of his body.

This is the most powerful antiwar novel I have ever read. It’s a game changer.
