Do you re-read books?

Question

I've only ever re-read one book. I think it's pointless and boring to read them mroe then once. (yes it's different then watching a movie more then once)
Although I will have to re-read another in a few days for a book report.

Answer 1

Definitely. But I have to wait a year or so in order to forget enough about the storyline so that I don't remember just about everything that happens in the story. But if I find a book that I absolutely LOVE, then I make a mental note to re-read it later. I've even read some books 3 times. The books that I read that much are the ones that REALLY REALLY LOVED. But that's only happened once or twice. Usually the books I read are just read twice.

Answer 2

Yes I do b/c I generally dont remember them that well after the first time. Also, I always notice other things that I might have missed the first time.

I dont, however, read a book one week and then turn around and read it again. Normally there is a long span of time b/t the first read and the second read.

Answer 3

I do re-read my books. When I read them again I find things I missed the first time.

Answer 4

C. S. Lewis the famous writer ( and an EXTREMELY well-read person) said: A book not worth reading twice is not worth reading once"
