The first two books of the His Dark Materials series. I've never read the third one. I keep rereading the first two to refresh my memory before I tackle the third one, but I just never get around to reading the third one.

Latest Review: "Diary of a Snoopy Cat" by R.F. Kristi

Post by Queatzal »

I love to reread Of Mice and Men as well as all the works of Jane Austen. While Steinbeck can be quite depressing at times, there’s something about this story that makes me feel compelled to read it again. Jane Austen’s novels always cheers me up because the characters feel like caricatures of people I actually know. Of course the time period is different but somehow the people still feel familiar. My absolute favorite reread is Anne of Green Gables. I just love the setting and the fiesty protagonist.

Guitar Girl by Sarra Manning.

My Mum gave it to me years ago because I have the same name as the main character. I was far too young and nearly everything just went over my head (fortunately). As I read the book again and again each year, I got to understand it a little bit more. It's pretty poignant but worth the ride- I mean read.

Oddly, I don't tend to re-read books often. If I do, usually enough time has passed in between for me to forget everything that happened. So... I guess the only books I've ever re-read are Wuthering Heights and The Prisoner of Azkaban.

Definitely the Harry Potter series. I’ve reread those books quite a few times and always find myself coming back to them.

I reread all of the books in the Eragon series by Christopher Paolini at least 5 times each book.
They go in this order if anyone is interested in trying them. It's called the "Inheritance cycle"

Eragon
Eldest
Brisinger
Inheritance

This was truly my favorite novels when I was younger and I completely urge you to read this series.

Latest Review: "Bleeding Gull - look, feel, fly" by Raed Anis Aljishi

Post by Whippet »

Honestly, probably Harry Potter series because it was such a big part of my childhood and it's weird not rereading it every year like I used to. In terms of more adult books, I reread Special Topics in Calamity Physics by Marisha Pessl more than any other, trying to solve its mystery :)

Every December I read, A Christmas Carol, by Dickens.

A 1903 edition was handed down to me from my grandmother. The book was given to her, by a teacher for Christmas, a year before she left the 8th grade.

Reading the "almost" original text, and the fun in noticing different things, such as Bob Crachet is referred to as the 'clerk' until Christmas Day, I always find it fascinating how the story has changed over the century.

Peace

I love this!

Hands down the book(s) I reread the most are The Lunar Chronicles. I can't really pin it down to a single book since every time I reread it, I reread all four of them. In truth, I've probably reread Cinder the most, since it's the first book in the series, but my favorite to reread is Cress, which is the third.

Before Marissa Meyer, I think the book I reread the most was Eragon by Christopher Paolini. Great book and it was a huge part of my childhood.

Books I physically reread most:

The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz (I've also bought every used copy I've ever seen of this and given them to friends.) Everyone needs to read this book.

Writing Down the Bones by Natalie Goldberg

Anything written by, my personal favorite, Chuck Palahniuk - known best for writing Fight Club

Audiobooks I listen to over and over:

The Passage Trilogy by Justin Cronin - even though it totals over 90 hours of listening time! It's a fantastic series and Scott Brick is such a great narrator I've purchased other audiobooks just because he's reading them!

Seveneves by Neil Stephenson because it just fascinates me!

Stephen King’s The Dark Tower Series. It’s so easy to get lost in Roland’s world. There’s so much going on from one volume to the next that I find it difficult to put down once I start, and I can’t wait to read them again once I’m done.
If you’re unaware that King writes more than just horror, you should give The Dark Tower a try. The Gunslinger (#1 in the series) is a little plodding, but keep in mind that it was written in the 70’s and long before he knew he has this glorious arc of a tale to tell.
I have read all 7.5 books (7 novels + 1 short story) and multiple graphic novels in their entirety 8 times so far, and I’m looking forward to my next marathon!
