DISCUSSION: RE-READ WORTHY NOVELS

Lately, I have found myself missing my most beloved characters form my favorite novels and craving to lose myself in their stories once again. Hence while it has been kind of quite on my blog and why I haven't been posting as much new reviews as I used to. Yes, you deduced it right. I have been re-reading my favorites.

I love my kindle. But when it comes to my favorite books, I always have to get paperback or hardcover version. This way, whenever I'm in the mood for re-read, I can quickly take it from my shelf, snuggle into my reading sofa and enjoy my favorite scenes (or remind myself of details before release of next instalment in case of series) over again. Sounds perfect, right?

What I re-read lately (click on pic to read my full review):

I adore all these novels and can't praise them enough. I re-read All Souls Trilogy by Deborah Harkness religiously every year and I always find new details that make my reading experience more and more exciting. Reading Bad Romeo by Leisa Rayven makes my heart race every single time even though I know perfectly well what is about to happen. It is very rare gift for a book to possess and it's a reason why I treasure this book so much. And Outlander? It's the only book that I own more than one version in print. It is the book that I love above all other books and it's my go-to book whenever I want to escape real life for a while.

What I plan to re-read in a near future:

With End of Days release date coming closer, I need to re-read first two books in Penryn & the End of the Days series by Susan Ee so I am ready for the final instalment. Also, I wasn't very lucky with YA contemporary novels I picked recently so I think I need to remind myself that there still are some gems out there in this genre. That's why I will be re-reading I'll Meet You There by Heather Demetrios soon!

DO YOU EVER RE-READ YOUR FAVORITES?

WHAT ARE YOUR RE-READ WORTHY NOVELS?

DO YOU COLLECT PRINTED COPIES OF YOUR TOP FAVORITE BOOKS?

You are NOT the first person to recommend the All Souls Trilogy. I actually bought the first book awhile back but have yet to read it. You are making me want to go and read it now. Well... after my LH Cosway books ;)
I also read and LOVED Outlander, unfortunately I haven't got to reading any further into the series. Why? I have no clue. But it was PHENOMENAL!
Bad Romeo and I'll meet you there are on my TBR too. I feel like there will never be enough time to even read my TOP TIER TBR books let alone do rereads. And I have quite a few I want to reread so I'm hoping that I'll take a bit to do that soon like you have!

I read my favorites once in a while, not too often though - but I should though. I usually re-read the books Bully and A Thousand Splendid Suns the most.

& Oh, I liked Outlander as well - Great post!

I do think rereading is important! It can be hard to find the time to do it because you know, there are so many other new books out there to try and enjoy as well! But I am buying all my favourite kindle books in proper copies and I do intend to reread them before adding them to my shelf!

I wish I made re-reading more of a practice especially for my favourite books. I actually re-read Angelfall and it was amazing, even better than I remembered! I need to read the last book in the All Souls Trilogy, glad to hear you enjoy it. Great topic to discuss, Lucia!

I really need to read Outlander. I haven't gone past chapter 8. I will continue to read it soon :) Oh! And you can get Angelfall and World After on Netgalley :) They released them there because End of Days is coming out.

Great post! I do not reread favorites nearly as much as I should, but I really need to start. There are some great books that I have read that I would like to read again, like Speak or Sea of Tranquility. I am like you. I have a Kindle and I LOVE it, but I want to own my absolute favorites in print. I am always terrified of a power outage or zombie apocalypse with no reading material. Yep, that is what I think about. :)
