I'm cutting WAY back on review books so some re-reads may be in my future. Last year, I listened to the first four books of Anne Rice's Vampire Chronicles on audio. That was my fourth re-read of Queen of the Damned (my favorite book). <br /><br />I'm getting ready to read Name of the Wind for the first time next month with the Fantasy Book Club on Goodreads. I've really been looking forward to it.Michelle Stockard Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03572227726980569386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1654077885966809906.post-84214934729144839412011-04-01T13:29:45.759-07:002011-04-01T13:29:45.759-07:00I love re-reading my favorite books!

A lot of my fave re-read books are also like my ultimate comfort books, I go to them when I need cheering up or a guaranteed good read. I don't think my re-reading habits have changed much since becoming a book blogger, but I do think there is definitely less of a chance of me going for my re-read books nowadays since there's always a ton of new and amazing sounding books to read. Good luck on re-reading more books! Haha, this post has made me suddenly want to re-read one of my favorite books. :DAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1654077885966809906.post-25006321164148476672011-04-01T12:51:58.942-07:002011-04-01T12:51:58.942-07:00Luckily I still have time to Re-read one book ever...Luckily I still have time to Re-read one book every week.

However, it's hard to find the time! <br />I had to make 're-reading 5 star/favorite books' a New Years Resolution or I wouldn't have done it, lol. <br />Already I've re-read two of my favorite books ever: JELLICOE ROAD and NEVERMORE. (I've also been in kind of a reading slump, so when I can't find anything new and interesting to read, I just pick an old favorite!)Ameliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14767350676055319412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1654077885966809906.post-22749488627040468362011-04-01T10:19:45.109-07:002011-04-01T10:19:45.109-07:00I know *just* what you mean, srsly this entry coul...I know *just* what you mean, srsly this entry could have been written by me - Tamora Pierce is one of my most re-read authors!!<br /><br />I'm currently reading The Wise Man's Fear, as I read The Name of the Wind less than 6 months ago - trust me, you have something to look forward too!<br /><br />But yeah, I've stopped rereading books. I have so many others to read and a deadline to keep up with. It is a bit of a shame :/<br /><br />~iben<br />http://boroughofbooks.blogspot.com/Ibenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09286888107805731142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1654077885966809906.post-46778808184268664562011-04-01T09:55:07.006-07:002011-04-01T09:55:07.006-07:00YES! I feel the same way. I'm so busy reading ...YES! I feel the same way. I'm so busy reading for my blog that I rarely read for pleasure. (Don't get me wrong, I still enjoy what I read.) So, old favorites - as well as new REALLY want to read books - have been cast aside! For this reason, I take every couple of months off from scheduled review, so I can get back into reading just because it's something I want to read.ham1299https://www.blogger.com/profile/04571203527388227830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1654077885966809906.post-91962472336777429372011-04-01T09:23:19.423-07:002011-04-01T09:23:19.423-07:00I've long been a fan of re-reading books, star...I've long been a fan of re-reading books, starting from when I was a child and would read favored books dozens of times or more. (It was hard to find challenging but age-appropriate books back in the 1970s when I started reading in earnest.)<br /><br />Now I try not to beat myself up about it too much. When I'm sick in bed, I re-read old favorites like Jane Austen or L M Montgomery. And any time I'm feeling stressed from work or life in general, I treat myself to a good re-read of whatever I think will make me feel better at the time. <br /><br />So embrace it--don't beat yourself up about it!As the Crowe Flies and Readshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12110661562901480120noreply@blogger.com
