Which books do you re-read regularly?

[Zardnaar]

I think so. But I liked the Belgariad and Mallorean, so I figured I might like this as well.

Fair enough. It's his best work imho ymmv of course.

I wish I had time to read new books, let alone regularly re-read old ones!

Even when I was busiest with work I read a few pages every night until I fell asleep. ;-)

HP Lovecraft. I downloaded an ebook version of his complete works, and will occasionally just open up a random story. It's definitely easier to re-read short stories when I need to kill a bit of time than to commit to re-reading novels.

Yeah. I used to re-read it periodically, but at this point I don't think it's going to finish before Martin sluffs off the mortal coil, so I've written it off.

I used to re-read the first three, but after that they became a bit of a slog to get through. He should have stuck to his very original plan of a trilogy.

 

[Ralif Redhammer]

Likewise. Maybe if there's ever a firm release date for the Winds of Winter, but knowing that A Dream of Spring is likely never making it to print, maybe not?

The first three are the best anyway......they really drop off after that. But I sold mine, so I'm no longer tempted to re-read them (again).

I read it every summer. I just really like it, flaws and all. The rabbits feel very rabbity, not fuzzy long eared humans.

i used to finish reading it and go straight back to the start. I know what you mean, it had such a bittersweet ending, jest left me wanting more. I am definitely going to read it again now!
