Read it as fast as possible because I've got no patience and I want to know how it ends => slow read. This time I actually see the punctuation => meaningful read, reserved for the books I liked (more than 2 stars). I try to find the little things that make a book special.
The books that I see as a comfort read, with a nice cup of tea and a rainy day in the mix , are:



I usually choose one book from these series.

The Rot & Ruin series by Jonathan Maberry.

I just keep going back to them again and again









Pride and Prejudice is the novel I reread the most often, which fits for this group. (the other isn't anything I see here :))

Like Percy Jackson, City of Bones, School for Good and Evil and so many other.
It depends on my mood. If I want to feel something I have the right books to re-read!





Stranger at Wildings, by Madeleine Brent
The Secret Garden, by Frances Hodgson Burnett
Favorite series:
The Queen's Thief series, by Megan Whalen Turner (about once every two years, or when she releases a new book)
Obernewtyn, by Isobelle Carmody (great dystopian)
Favorite authors:
various books of Ursula LeGuin, Daphne du Maurier, Rumer Godden, Rosamunde Pilcher, Connie Willis, Sheri S. Tepper, Terry Pratchett, Dick Francis, Lee Childs.
These all added to my previous post. I usually reread either when I'm in a slump and haven't found a book I liked for a while, I'm in a mood for something specific and want something guaranteed to please it, or I'm depressed and want "comfort food."

And it seems Krampus: The Yule Lord, I plan to read it for the third time this month (not 3 times in the same month just that I read it last year and a couple years before that)
I hope to add to the list
The duology The Abyss Surrounds Us and The Edge of the Abyss
and I need to re-read the Harry Potter series, i've only read it all the way through once, in 2015

The starless sea is another one I'll definitely read again because who wouldn't like to descend to an underground library!
Agatha Christie's books with Hercule Poirot and Miss Marple!
Valentina Giambanco's Alice Madison series is also on my re-read plans because the crime plot good, intriguing characters + one of my favourite couples!
Jane Eyre because it's wonderful!
Pride and prejudice because you know... Mr. Darcy!
The lord of the rings because it's amazing!

So true! I have been meaning to re-read this! :)
