Rereading Is Here! Let's Say It Again. Rereading Is Here!
How much do we love rereading? Let us count the ways…for those days when you just want to spend time with your favorite characters; or when you want to revisit a beloved classic; or maybe you want to brush up on a series before the next installment comes out (we're still waiting, George R.R. Martin and Diana Gabaldon), the list goes on! Rereading is such a core part of many of our readers' lives that having a better way to keep track of the times you've read a book has been your number one feature request. Starting today, that wish has been granted—no more missing out on rereads being counted for your Reading Challenge!
How Do I Start Using the Rereading Feature?
Next time you decide to reread a book that you've already marked as Read on Goodreads, simply mark it as Currently Reading. When you are done, just mark it as Read. You can do this from the Goodreads iOS and Android apps and on Goodreads.com, as well as in the About the Book feature on Kindle (if you have connected your Goodreads and Amazon accounts - click here to connect your accounts). We take care of marking it as a reread for you. Bonus, it will also automatically be included in your Reading Challenge.
Rereading Rolling Out In Stages
While it sounds like a simple thing to add, rereading turned out to be a complex engineering challenge that involved our entire database. To give you a sense of that scope, our 60 million members have added more than 1.7 billion books to their shelves! That's why we're rolling out rereading in stages. So, if you're not seeing it yet, you will soon!
How Do I Know If I Have the New Rereading Feature?
Go to Goodreads.com on desktop, choose a book you have already read, and click Edit on the My Activity area of the Book Page. At the bottom of the review section, you'll see the following:
How Do I Add All The Times I've Reread My Favorite Books?
On Goodreads.com on desktop, use the brand-new "Add read date" button in My Activity on the Book Page to enter when you read the book; then hit save! (You don't have to have a start date, but you must have a finish year for the book to count toward your Reading Challenge.)
What Happens If I've Been Keeping Track of My Rereads With The "Number of Times Read" Option?
If you previously used the "Number of times read" field, don't worry, we've already done the work for you and all your rereads are still there. If you added a number, it automatically shows in the new feature. If you used text, we've included it in the private notes section of your review. Simply click on edit Review, to change any dates or add more information.
I've Been Using Different Editions to Track Rereads, What Happens Now?
Our new rereading feature takes that into account! Rereads are comprehensive of all editions. When you view your review, it will indicate that you have also read another edition and include that in the total count.
Wondering which are the books Goodreads members most love to reread? Here are some of the most revisited books:

Just was thinking about it recently! Thank yoou!))
Goodreads - you are the best! Thank you so much for this update! <3
YESSS!! Thank you! Here's to not losing anymore challenges because of rereading! <3
Thank you! Even if I rarely re-read, I know this has been one of the most wanted features for a loooong time.
This is fantastic. Thank you so much. Now to remove all extra added editions of everything I've been rereading the last few years...
Yaaay! <3 Thank you, Goodreads. I have reread "The Host" by Stephenie Meyer .
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! This is amazing!! I love you Goodreads!!
Awesome! Thank you :D Now the next feature I'm looking for (no pressure :P ) is the possibility to mark a book as "abandoned" when you quit half-way through.
hi,i have just completed a book. but it in the review its showing as...
Status
February 7, 2017 – Finished Reading
February 7, 2017 – Currently Reading
I am not currently reading it. I started and finished the book on 7 February 2017 - and have not added data to Add date read... so, ?
This is awesome, thank you! Half stars next? ;)
Wow I can't wait to use this feature! I've been dreaming of this for so long and now I can finally use it! Thank you Goodreads <3
This is the best. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
I'm not much of a re-reader, but this new feature seems great.
Great news!! Will save me lots of time editing

Finally! I was so unhappy that rereads weren't counted! Thank you!
Great NEW feature GoodReads! Thought there are very less books i love to re-read this is a great tracking option <3
Finally! ! !Now what remains to be 100% satisfied is the rating system. The 5 stars system is a bit restrictive. A good example is the Rotten Tomatoes rating system with half stars or if 10 stars is more accepted then I'm fine. I'm using it on IMDB
Jane Eyre and Twightlight on that list. ALL of Colleen Hoover's books, ALL of Jamie McGuire's books....J.D.Robb's books, on and on and on... Amy Harmon...Terri Ried...Wuthering Heights...
