Which book/s have you read more than once?

[star.torturer]

the only books i have erver read twice are harypotter ones, i read the first one 50 times in one month, i am ashamed, especialy as it took me a whole year to read the second one. i usualy dont read a book more than once, because i dont have time, im always reading a new book after i have finnished a book. i have atleast 10 serises in my head at the moment. including foundation(asimov), otherland(tad wiliams), wheel of time(rob J). others include; P F hamilton, JK Rowling, KJ anderson, A Reynowlds, A MaCafery. i also store previous comleated stories in my head, including LOTR, Odysey(Clarke), Earth Children, D Adams, and many more

Just saw this thread. I won't even get into it much, unless someone's got a year or two to go through the list. Suffice to say: Moorcock (nearly all); Lovecraft (nearly all, more times than I remember); Tolkien (LotR at least 10-12 times alone); Peake: 3 times; Asimov (Foundation, Robot series) at least 3 times; Heinlein (with a few exceptions) 3-4 times.... It depends on whether it's a book that rewards me more each time I read it or not. So far I've been lucky, and most of what I read does. (Or, in my case, with my TBR list, is that unlucky??? )

Well, here’s the short list.

Adams - The Hitchhiker's Guide series
Poul Anderson - Tau Zero, The Broken Sword
Asimov – The Foundation
Burgess – A Clockwork Orange
Zelazny – Jack of Shadows, Lord of Light
Moorcock – Corum series
Lord of the Rings (around 20 times. Now I just jump to my favorite scenes.)
John Crowly – Little, Big
Philip Jose Farmer – The Lovers, The Wind Whales of Ishmael
HP Lovecraft – The Dreamquest of Unknown Kadath
Andre Norton – The first 5 or 6 Witch World books

Have been reading it properly at least once a year since I was in high school and going through favourite bits in between times and still cry at all the same places.

And i just noticed that the most recent book on the list is over 20 years old! Most of them are over 30 years old. I guess it takes about 30 years for the books i really love to fade from my poor, abused memory.

[Kettricken]

In my childhood I read books multiple times... Roald Dahl was one of my favourites: must have read 'Matilda', 'the BFG', 'Charlie and the chocolate factory' multiple times... also, books by the Dutch author Thea Beckman, e.g. 'Crusade in jeans'.

In my teenage years there were a few years I didn't read that much. When reading for my language subjects, I suddenly found myself for a list of 80 books I had to read for secondary school... enjoyed a number of them and read them twice (once in Dutch, once in English), e.g. 'Rebecca' by Daphne du Maurier, 'Pride & Predjudice' by Jane Austen, 'Dracula' by Bram Stoker and 'the hobbit' by you-know-who . The dutch book 'discovery of heaven' by Harry Mulish I also read twice.

During college/university years I've read LOTR multiple times (5, 6, ...??), the Farseer trilogy twice and I'm planning to reread 'a song of ice and fire' by George R.R. Martin before the good version of 'a feast for crows' comes out (apparently there has been a misprint...).
I'd like to reread more books, actually, like the Guy Gavriel Kay books, but there are always so many books on my TBR list... (...and always will be...)

[Kaotic_Writer]

none for some reason i cannot read a book more than once but i remember all of them

[Black-Regret]

I don't often re-read books expect for the harry potter books, discwold and of course Lord of the Flies, one of my favourite booke i had to buy a second compy because my first one has been used so many times.
