His Dark Materials. I was already doubting the faith I grew up with and those books helped me finally shedding all that non-sense.

Funny. I was going to say this, but for entirely different reasons (I already didn't have any faith).

It was one of the first books I read after/during puberty. I'm pretty sure now that it majorly influenced me in the way I thought love should be (not only between Lyra & Will) and what I thought to look for as far as love goes.

But yeah, now I know of course that it's not at all like that :D

it's great to see this one here. first thing that popped up on my mind

and not because of faith tbf, but because that world is so damn cool. it's the only series I had to read more than once (probably 3x) just so I could be immersed there again
