It's not an attitude as the poster above said, it's lack of time and too many exciting new choices. I may re-read chapter or two, but whole book, I have no time for.
Same here. I have been known to re-read when I have nothing new to read, but I don't think that's ever likely to happen in the digital age. There are about a thousand items on my TBR, and plenty more I want to get hold of.

Oddly enough, I think Pawn of Prophecy is a book I have read more than once, but I don't think I even own a copy any more. I felt like I could see the workings too much the second time: the travelogue plot with strong national stereotyping, and the regularity with which their enemies attack them to keep things lively.

Also, if ever there was a series to put you off prophecies...

It has been a very long time, though, and maybe I should try revisiting it, to see how it holds up. I'll get on to it after I finish these two hundred high priority TBRs.
