I do re-read books, usually because I don't want to spend the money buying new and I haven't had time to get to the library. :
rnament:
Certain books I will re-read often, in many cases because they are books I read and fell in love with when I was much younger.
Those books would be...
Anne of Green Gables series
Narnia books
Little Women
Jane Eyre (Yes - I first read it at age 11! :haha: )
Little House books
Beauty by Robin McKinley
A sampling of books that I re-read that I discovered as an adult are:
The Historian by Elizabeth Kostova
The Harry Potter books - LOVE EM!
ANYTHING by Guy Gavriel Kay, although the Fionavar triolgy and The Lions of Al-Rassan are my favorites...
Rebecca's Tale by Sally Beauman (a sort of continuation of Daphne DeMauier's Rebecca)
The Thursday Next series by Jasper Fforde
Song of Fire & Ice books by George R. R. Martin
Honestly, I read ALOT. I re-read and I read new books all the time. I am a very fast reader and it is nothing for me to get through a medium sized book in a couple days. Less in the summer because I am outside so much.
I don't really know anyone who enjoys reading as much as I do, so I've never been able to loan/recieve books.
That is why I love the library!
:-D
