I still read and reread books I loved as an adolescent; it's cosy/comfort reading when I'm exhausted or lazy, but that was well over 20 years ago. I find that books I've read as an adult mostly will not be reread, at least in part because of so many books, so little time. That doesn't mean that I'm willing to dispose of books I loved, however; just the having of them recalls them to me. However, I'm ready to start weeding out at the margins. I think.
