As a tangent to the re-read thread: if you do re-read, which books do you re-read?
I'm definitely a re-reader and agree with everyone on the thread who talked about it terms of revisiting old friends, like comfort food, relaxing, etc.
So if you do enjoy re-reading books, which ones are your favorites to re-read?
Here are some of mine. I've read each of them at least three times:
Shogun
Pillars of the Earth
Clan of the Cave Bear
Gone with the Wind
Count of Monte Cristo
Harry Potter series
Bonfire of the Vanities
An Instance of the Fingerpost
Memoirs of a Geisha
Ready Player One
The Remains of the Day
Anagrams
The Moonstone
Cold Mountain
Here are a few more recently discovered books that I anticipate I will re-read in the future
Mapp and Lucia Anthology
The Art of Fielding
The Custom of the Country
House of Mirth
The Gentlemen's Bastards series
How about all the other re-readers? Which are your favorite comfort books?
