I dont really reread books unless its been a few years.

Over the past summer, I re-read a majority of Neil Gaiman's novels as well as books written by Amelia Atwater-Rhodes, Brian James, and Margaret Wild. As of late, I've been having an itch to re-read John Irving's A Prayer for Owen Meany as well (or just anything Irving).
Michelle
Definitely! I've re-read Lirael countless times, Wuthering Heights 3-4 times, The Vampire Armand possibly 10x, the Boxcar Children #1, more than 200 for sure... And a lot of other ones. haha. I love to re-read!

I always reread books. I always read them at least once right after I finish it. So it's like I read the last page then flip over to the first again. laugh.gif

That's crazy! haha. I always give it a week before I re-read it. I haven't even TOUCHED my Harry Potter books... D: I might cry if I do.

thats crazzy!=) but then, the first time you read it, you might've missed some details. i should try doing that sometimes!
tokyo-rose
Yeah, if it's a book I really like. But it can get boring after the fifth time or so.
VaeVictis

Yeah, I've read my favourite trilogy ... 3 times, now.

And you do miss little details the first time around. So when you re-read, tiny little tidbits of info you haven't encountered yet leap out at ya.

xBUTTMUNCHx

As soon as I've read a book I often feel like reading it again, straight after.
I fight the temptation though and re-read it much later.

I've read The Devil Wears Prada like four times now. mellow.gif
synthase
Not most books but I like reading the harry potter series over and over and over again.
Not to mention Memoirs of A Geisha; I love the movie too throb.gif
quietlove
There are two books that I don't mind reading over and over again:

Life of Pi, by Yann Martel, and Fahrenheit 451, by Ray Bradbury.
EmoEyelinerx
I can read some books over and over like harry potter and twilight/new moon/eclipse but others get boring after awhile.
secretwish
sometimes, like after six months and i ran out of things to read.
but other times, i hate re-reading books since i know wats going to happen next.
nosylilme
I only reread the books I like, usually awhile after I've read them. I have this thing where I have to read Tithe every beginning of the school year. laugh.gif
karmakiller
I can read Night over and over and it still effects me the same way it did the first time I read it, which is rare for me.
Smarmosaur
I think i've read Twilight and New Moon about two hundred times, and Eclipse 5 times since I got it...
annalucky
hhmm, I like to read some books over and over. One of them is the The Enchanted Forest Chronicles by Patricia Wrede. I can't remember any other titles. But I usually read them over if I don't have anything else to read.
misoshiru
love to. there are books that i've read more than 10 times. i can't remember off the top of my head since i'm at college and the only books i have are school books.
megnast
i NEVER reread books. i just can't do it.
brooklyneast05
if it's an extremely good book i like rereading it, and catching all the details i missed the first time around
1angel3
I can't read a book over and over, that's why I don't buy them, I just check them out
elzombie
If a book is really good I'll re-read it after awhile
TheReasonWhy
i do that for chinese books but not english ones.. i think i read too slow for english ones, i would rather use the time to read another book. but if i ever have the time and speed.. i would
holdinon2me
I can't really reread them unless its been a while and i forget things about it...
StandardEdition

List:
Rx

Twilight
Got Fangs [its so hilarious and cute]
Story Time
Gothic [thats like 13 stories tho]
I cant think of anymore
I will probably edit later
S-Majere
I can read the ALIEN quadrilogy over and over again. I love the films and the books add real depth to the whole franchise.

Other than those, the Dragonlance series by Weiss and Hickman are my all time read-agains. _smile.gif

I have a thing for Raistlin Majere...
ANG33ZY
I like reading Roald Dahl books over and over
or um Dr. Seuss.
livwho
Definitely. They're better the second time.
superstitious
I always read a book more than once. Well, usually atleast.

I've read the LOTR stuff several times (I have no life) and all the Potters book twice (Phoenix three times).

AH! I don't get how people can find Edward more appealing than Jacob!

Anyway, I love to read my favorite books over. It's fun discovering new things I missed the first time because I was too busy trying to get to the next scene.
LoveToMySilas
I can always read R.L Stine books over and over. They never get old. And no, I don't mean the goosebump ones. laugh.gif
Smarmosaur

transcendentalism

Me too. I usually like to pick up something new instead of re-read something.
austinoutloud
i mustve read all of the harry potter bookas at least 5 times.
yrrnotelekktric
I don`t tend to re-read books.
i`ve only re-read like 3: frankenstein, eragon, harry potter 5.


yeah, 3.

XD.gif

i think for eragon, i could go for a 3rd. _smile.gif
jaeman
Not really, when I'm done, I'm done.
yrrnotelekktric
^haha, Jude.
i bet if there was an m&m book, you`d re-read it. shifty.gif
tinababy143
i used to do that, but i just cant anymore. since i already know whats going to happen, it ruins everything for me. I've been the same with movies lately too. I'm just in a weird phase right now tho. LoL. The books written by David Pelzer are good ones tho! [Child Called It, Invisible Boy, Man Named Dave.] If I was in the mood, I could read those time && time again.
Tracy-14
I'm always re-reading Inkheart by Cornilia Funke. I love her work, shes my fave. <3
