I was just thinking that I am going to read "Breakfast at Tiffanys" again as I saw it mentioned in a discussion and remembered that I loved it when I read it a few years ago. I'm just wondering, if there was only one book that you could re-read what would it be?

I think Cold Mountain or The Poisonwood Bible.
I haven't read The Perks of Being a Wallflower yet but it seems to be very good based on reviews- must try it!

Gone With The Wind. The Silence of the Lambs.
This was a hard question. If I should chose only one book I think it would be The Perks of being a wallflower (or maybe Harry potter 7)
Seriously - only one?!? That is so mean ;)Okay...if I HAD to choose, it would be this one:
Mine is Amazing Grace by Megan Shull. She's a local author for me, and I met her and she signed my book....right after she sold it to me...haha :) But its really good and always satisfies me at the end.
one book!? Probably the Summoning by Kelley Armstrong because its so unique and each time you read it you stumble upon a new detail!
prob either between the lines or obsidian
Maybe "Kane and Abel" by Jefferey Archer. Or even "The Thing Between U And Me...When Life Goes Filmy" by Sagar

"Def Outlander for me too!
well Harry Potter for sure. It was the book that made me fall in love with reading.
One? I think I'd rather cut off my fingers than if I could only re-read one book. If I had to choose one I guess it would be Fallen by Lauren Kate

ha yeah i guess it was a pretty hard question :-)

Oh this is a great question.. It seem hard for me to detached the book that becomes perfect and ingrained in to your soul from what is going on in your world at that time. I would have to say
I was coming from one of the greatest vacation I ever been on, dealing with a broke heart. I was stuck in Airport as a storm stopped all travel, alone still distilling everything that had happened. I needed to get back to my university having missed the first week of classes. This book at that time was perfect and spoke to me. And yeah it would be okay to experience that once more. =)
Wow...I just cannot choose 1...maybe Harry Potter in a foreign language so I could do two things at once? If I only had one book to read, I might as well learn a new language too...
Ooh thats a hard one. Probably either something by Stephen King or "The Gone Away World" by Nick Harkaway.
i just read a great book recently, hilarious and i'd seriously recommend it, its by a little known author Observation City

"Yas - I'd completely forgotten
It was a fantastic book! And the detail was incredible too. Thanks for the reminder :)
Its hard to choose one book...maybe Pride & Prejudice.
many fall in the list but I'd say Jane eyre..
Harry Potter, for sure. I've never had more fun reading than with those books! If I had to choose just one of the HP books, that would be tough. I'd probably go with
for the resolution.
Good Omens by Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman

I read it when I was in high school on my own. It took me half the book to realize that the story jumped around in time. I reread it after college and still found it crazy, dark, and hilarious. If you try it again, I would suggest reading Unbroken by Laura Hillenbrand first. She did a wonderful job at explaining the lives and mentality of servicemen in WWII, through the telling of Louis Zamperini's life story. I also loved the end of Catch-22. It gave me the feeling of hope.

It was the book that got me to love reading. I loved it from the first chapter :)
I'd definitely read "The Fault In Our Stars" again, Loved it!

"The Historian is actually on my "To Read" list- must start that soon :)
Impulse by Ellen Hopkins can never get tired of that
I'm going to cheat a little. The books I'd have to read again would be Sharon Penman's Welsh Trilogy. They are:Here be Dragons
Falls the Shadow
The Reckoning
The last book left me in tears and I don't cry easily. So if you haven't read this trilogy; you're really missing something great.
Also 'The Phantom' by Susan Kay-A brilliant book.
