Sample Answer

Absolutely, there are several books that have profoundly influenced my perspective. One such book is "To Kill a Mockingbird" by Harper Lee. This novel not only illuminated the deep-seated racial injustices in society but also emphasized the importance of empathy and moral integrity. Through the eyes of Scout Finch, I was compelled to reevaluate my understanding of human behavior and societal constructs. Another book that left a significant mark on my beliefs is "Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind" by Yuval Noah Harari. It provided a sweeping overview of human history and challenged my preconceived notions about our place in the world, prompting me to consider the interconnectedness of humanity. Together, these texts have been instrumental in shaping my worldview and instilling a sense of social responsibility.
