Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl.
This Week's Top Ten Tuesday Topic:
Books I Want to Re-Read
There are some books that I would love to experience again. Maybe because I want to
revisit the characters, maybe the story was particularly impactful, or maybe it evoked a
particular feeling that I would love to recapture. I don't often make time for re-reading,
but if/when I do, these are some of the books I would love to pick up and enjoy all over again.
Keep This Promise - Corinne Michaels
Tied - Carian Cole
Kulti - Mariana Zapata
Cake - J. Bengtsson
We Own Tonight - Corinne Michaels
Tattered Stars - Catherine Cowles
Everything Under the Sun - Jessica Redmerski
All the Ugly and Wonderful Things - Bryn Greenwood
Once We Were Starlight - Mia Sheridan
Pucking Around - Emily Rath
Do you re-read favorite books?
I will re-read some old favorites. But I worry that the book may not connect with me in quite the same way it did on the intial read.
ReplyDeleteMichael - Thankfully I've not had that problem with the few re-reads I have done. But that's always the concern with re-reading, I suppose. Thanks for visiting!
DeleteI hope you love rereading all of them!
ReplyDeleteHere is my Top Ten Tuesday.
Lydia
Thanks Lydia. :)
DeleteI wouldn't mind rereading Tied or Kulti. I loved Cake, but don't feel a pull to it again. All of Cowles's books feel similar to me, so I think I would rather read a new one instead. But that's just me. I listed a bunch of books I have re-read today.
ReplyDeleteDeanna - I don't know what it was about Cake but it was one of those rare books that hit me in a certain way. I am so attached to all the characters in that series.
DeleteI can understand why. I probably don't want to re-read because of the emotions from it. That's my guess.
DeleteIt's hard to find the time for re-reads, but want to re-read Kulti too!
ReplyDeleteRachel - I'd love to experience Kulti again. I bet it will be so different knowing what I know about him now. :)
DeleteI love re-reading! I haven't read any of these yet, but Kulti is high up on my TBR :)
ReplyDeleteLindsey - I'm excited to experience Kulti all over again. :)
DeleteI also posted about Bryn Greenwood today but her other book!
ReplyDeleteSophie - I totally wavered about which one to pick! I'd love to re-read them both.
DeleteI rarely re--read books. There are too many new ones I want to read that I don't want to "waste" time on those I've already read. Other than re-reading A CHRISTMAS CAROL every year and re-reads of absolute favorites every few years, I don't bother.
ReplyDeleteHappy TTT!
Susan - I tend to feel the same, not wanting to "waste" time on previously read books when there are so many others I want to read. I have to keep reminding myself that any time I spend reading something I enjoy is never time wasted. :)
DeleteI am known to not reread (I have only read one of these books), but I can appreciate other people's enjoyment of it.
ReplyDeleteSam - I actually wish I made time to re-read more, but it rarely happens. Sometimes I just enjoy the comfort of returning to favorite characters.
DeleteIt's sad that we never seem to have any time to reread favorite books any more. There are several I own that I'd love to dip into again. If I had more time. Love your list! :D
ReplyDeleteLark - I agree! I get so focused on all the shiny new books, but I really want to experience some old favorites again.
DeleteI used to reread A LOT, but not so much in recent years. It is something I really enjoy, though, so I made it a goal to do it more this year.
ReplyDeleteAngela - Same here, I really want to do more re-reading this year.
DeleteI don't re-read very often but there have been a few, like the Harry Potter series, that I've enjoyed revisiting.
ReplyDeleteSuzanne - I've done some re-reads on audio (The Others series and the Marked Men series) but there are many more I'd love to re-read.
DeleteI loved re-reading old favorites. But yes, I hardly get to do that these days. I'd love to re-read Cake as well!
ReplyDeleteMaureen - I'm thinking about re-reading the entire Cake series on audio. So excited to relive it all again.
DeleteI do reread books and I've found that I typically reread romances. I will have to look at this list as I haven't read any of these!
ReplyDeleteKatherine - I love that you make a point to re-read, particularly romance. I'm determined to do more of that this year.
