The book that started your love of reading.

As a child I had no interest in reading, probably due to the utter crap on the school reading lists etc.
On a very rainy family holiday in Wales I found this on a bookshelf
http://www.wilbursmithbooks.com/books/standalone/e...
Eagle in the Sky by Wilbur Smith.
I was probably about 14.
After several abortive attempts to read it something finally clicked, the film screen in my head sprang into life and I read it in one sitting.
Since then I've probably read a book a week (apart from periods where I can't seem to find a book I like ).
Which one started you off?
