Do you read a book more than once?
 

Basically what the title says, do you read a book only once or more than that?

I have some books that I really like and I have read them 5+ times each, my OH thinks it's pointless :shrug:

Do Garfield books count?

no what's the point

Yes

My harry potter ones have been read at least 3 times each

Have done but its very rare, would need to be an amazing book

Used to re-read books quite a lot as a kid, especially the Redwall series, read all of them at least twice. For Whom the Bell Tolls is probably the last book I read more than once

Yep, Dark Tower. :love:

Yep

It's a rarity, only because I always have a pretty long reading list (at any one time there's between 5-10 books I want to get through).

Yeah, must have reread harry potter a good half a dozen times, think once i've finished a casual vacancy I'm gonna reread the ASOFAI series, just because i've forgotten half of it already

I don't read that much, I'd like to though. I've read the Hunger Games a couple of times, I really got into them. I have some of the Harry Potter books, but I keep losing interest in it :(

Don't think I have ever read a book more than once

Yes I have quite a lot that ive read more than once

Yeah, if I adore a book it's get reread but only I say 5-10% of the books I read get reread. Though some books I've read have been so good but so sad that I've only been able to read them the once.

No never, my daughter used to read the Jacqueline Wilson books over and over.

Yes

this...

Yeah there's a few I've read at least 3 times. If I love a book I don't mind reading it again after a few years.

I never have no but I'm considering re reading ASoIaF again, just because I think I would pick up little things I missed a second time round

I have a large collection of 'old friends' as I think of my books (no, I don't get out much!) and I love to re-read them. Some are so old and tattered because they have been read to death. I still like finding new writers and titles, but my old favourites are the ones I always return to.

Yes, I do.

no

Yes, the very good ones on my shelf get a re-read after a few years.

It's like revisiting an old friend you haven't heard from in awhile

I have a few like this too.

It also surprises me sometimes how much little details I seem to miss the first time I read a book that I pick up on when I'm reading it again.

I'm kind of like this too, in a way i regret reading harry potter when i was so young, because you don't really appreciate it for what it is, or realise how ****ing clever JK is, then when you're rereading and you realise all the little stuff, it's annoying as hell cause you know how it ends

Sometimes. It's like with movies, I don't rewatch/re-read as a rule but if I really enjoyed it or it's something that warrants another go because of all the detail then I will.
