Welcome to Litsy!

Absolutely! Books that I love or ones that I feel I could absorb more from.

I have reread series before the next book release, or books that have been on my mind, or books that had messages I felt the need to revisit.

The Hobbit & Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter both rank high.

Others include The Handmaid‘s Tale.

This year Wild by Cheryl Strayed is on my to reread list.

Rereading at different ages & life stages often makes different parts of the story stand out & come into focus differently I find.

In Loving Memory of the Books I‘ll Never Read Again by Cole Rush: https://www.tor.com/2023/08/14/in-loving-memory-of-the-books-ill-never-read-agai...

I'm not much of a re-reader myself, but there have been times I wished I could go back and read my favorites again for the first time.

We are so excited to welcome everyone to another Thursday Tea Time. Today, we're sitting down to talk about rereading and why we don't do it.

Anyone want to join in for a #MonthOfRereads?

This month, I‘m exclusively rereading books. Anyone is welcome to join in the hashtag and tag me if you want. You can read new books, too, if you want.

Some reasons to enjoy a reread:

Do I still like a book I enjoyed in my 20s?
Is this book as bad as I remember?
I love this book around the holidays.

Running now through Dec 31! Then new year, new books 😊📚

Woot, just got another volume of Giant Days as #bookmail and a random #libraryhaul. I'm not usually into thrillers of any sort but The Party sounds really good. And that travel book has been on my TBR for year. I tried the audio and bailed so am giving the print version a try.

#TBRtemptation post 4! A retired lit teacher embarked on a year-long rereading project: childhood faves, YA revisits, frequently reread ones, disliked canonicals, guilty pleasures, etc. She wanted to answer a number of fundamental questions: why reread when you know the plot; why reread a particular book annually; why return to childhood faves as an adult; is there a psychological need; why reread when life's so short? #blameLitsy #blameMrBook 😎

I might be way behind the times here (ok, it's very likely that I am!) but it looks like goodreads just added rereading tracking yesterday! Woo-hoo! 😊 👍👏👏👏

Can someone point me to who posted a reread challenge or the hashtag being used for it? I'm considering adding it to next year's challenges. 🤓📚#readallthebooks #reread
