Once again you're on your own! Only YOU know what your favorites from the past are.

Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte. I read this one every couple of years.

[Natália]

Ugh, this will be hard! I can't decided which one from my favorites I'll use!

[Amanda]

I have chosen to reread "The Shack" by Wm. Paul Young. I read this when it first came out and I remember it leaving an impact on me then.

[Valerie]

We are doing Little Women for book club this year. It was a favorite in middle school, so I might use it.

[Amy Beth]

I'll be re-reading Idle Thoughts of an Idle Fellow by Jerome K. Jerome. This book isn't for everyone and, admittedly, he goes off on philosophical trips sometimes, but it's hilarious. I found an old copy that was from 1890 (I think) in a used bookstore. I loved it and have re-read it several times. There's even an audio edition with Hugh Laurie reading portions of it. Fabulous. Three Men in a Boat is better, honestly. But that doesn't keep me from enjoying this one.

I´m looking forward to reread Gaudy Night by Dorothy L. Sayers. One of my favorites

[Neena]

I just realized, Goodreads doesn't really allow for re-reading in logging on our shelves does it? It would be neat it we could keep a tally on how many times we read a favorite.

I absolutely adore Dorothy L. Sayers and Gaudy Night is a favourite. My husband reads one of her books to me every year after Christmas -- it's supposed to help me "relax" after the rush is over, lol -- this year we're reading Clouds of Witness.

I think you can, if you click on the "more details" little link.

Cool!

For those wondering, I went in to edit my review of Neverwhere. I hadn't actually written a review of it, but it had my rating. Just above the save button there was the "more details" link. Number of times you've read it, private notes and more. Awesome. Thanks for the tip!

[Teresa]

Another category that I cannot easily make up my mind about. I am actually going to be re-reading some books I first read as a teen/tween to see if they stand the passage of time. These here have made my shortlist.

The Unbearable Lightness of Being

One Hundred Years of Solitude

The World According to Garp

The Painted Veil

The General in His Labyrinth

A Prayer for Owen Meany

The Sportswriter

Love Remains

[Frogli]

Not that I planned it but I've been 'rereading' and by that I mean listening to Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe, mainly because I discovered that the audio Book is read by Lin-Manuel Miranda so I was curious.

[Mary Sue]

While I was unable to pick one favorite book, as I was scrolling through a list of books I have read, I chose one of the first "adult" books I ever read - The Graduate. I was probably in high school and remember I felt so grown up reading it! I think I enjoyed it even more this second time around.

[Anabel]

I read "Night" by Elie Wiesel. I found it as heartwrenching as the first time and also so present in our world where so many persons are being targeted because race or religion issues.
