City of bones and Harry Potter ( faves )




That one must be a doozy of a read! How many times have you read it overall? My maximum was 37 readings with special circumstances (I was determined to keep reading The Godwhale until I understood all the science terminology -- I could tell it was about sex but a lot of the vocabulary was beyond me at age 10 when I first found it).



Well sure it does!


I am so with you on that. Do you get something different out of it every time you read it too?

Have to re-read it at least once a year.
Plus I go back and re-read David Gemmell books because they are just so good ! Every one of them....yes, every one !

Danse Macabre....yes indeed !
That goes without saying! ;)

AND Sword in the Storm - series.
Now Sir Fish....what book over 600 pages do you re-read?
Dictionary doesn't count nor do comic book series or the encyclopedia hehehehe...annnd GO !

Yes, I do. And I have followed this since a few years after it happened. It was my first true crime book.

That's Madame Fish. But books I can't open without re-reading start to finish include The Encyclopedia of Dead Rock Stars: Heroin, Handguns, and Ham Sandwiches, The Stand and the whole Blackwater: The Complete Caskey Family Saga series (6 volumes, about 200 pgs each).
In fact, sometimes when I re-read The Stand, I'll read the original release version and then have to read the extended version -- or vice-versa. That's well over 1600 pages right there.
