Take a look at your bookcase. If you had enough free time, which book would be the first one you’d like to reread? Why?
❤
I have never quite understood why some people re-read books or re-watch a movie. For me, if I’ve read it then I’ve read it, I close the book and move on to a new one.
If perhaps I was to read a book over it would be “The Da Vinci Code,” but I must tell you that I was so at the edge of my seat whilst reading it that I don’t think I can put myself through that excitement again. Yes, I read all the other Dan Brown’s but not the same one twice.
If I were to re-read a book it would have to have been exceptionally exceptional for me.

I am the same with books and collecting DVD movies. If I have read or seen, once is enough. I will keep a good book or purchase a movie I was absolutely smitten with just for the fact I want to hang on to it, but I don’t usually re-read or re-watch. I have one DVD here, called Patch Adams by Robin Williams, and I have one book called Black Like Me. I guess my bookshelf is very, very small.
I have also kept a few books which are meaningful to me. Thanks for popping in Terry ❤

Agreed!! 🙂
Glad we do ❤

I would read, without a doubt, “Women Who Run With the Wolves”! The best!!
I must put that book on my reading list 🙂
*Hugs*
The author’s name is Clarissa Pinkola Estes!
Thanks 🙂
I do reread books and re-watch movies myself. I think sometimes for me, it’s good b/c I can get even more of the message.
I so understand Yvonne ❤

I SO agree about rereading books. I did reread Gone With the Wind when I was a teenager, and I always feel like I might reread Life 101 sometime. But mostly no. Seinfeld reruns are another story. I have most episodes memorized, but I still watch.
Oh I must agree with you on Seinfeld, Genevieve 🙂

I’ve re-read books but years after the first time or re-read for a book club because I’ve forgotten details. There are books I wish I had time to read again because there is so much detail to process, and I wish to expand the original experience. ❤
I understand that, thanks so much dear Tess ❤

I’ve always said I will one day re-read The Book Thief but still haven’t after two or three years!
I need to read it too. Thanks Emilio.
*Hugs*
You have made me want to read this book. I have it on my bookshelf after finding it in a bargain bin one day. Not sure why I’ve never read it…..
It really is an exciting and nail biting book Gail. Hope you enjoy it 🙂
*Hugs*
I so agree with you. I’ve tried re-reading a couple of books that I read a long time ago, but given up, and as for movies, I would never want to do that.
We agree then ad 🙂

What a stunning shot Michelle! I just love it and it’s perfect in Black and White! 😀
As for re-reading a book – I will only do it if it was an old book and I can’t remember it anymore. 😆
I do prefer watching my favourite movies over and over, like Mary Poppins and Beetlejuice .. and a few others. 🙂

Thanks so much Sonel, glad you like the photo. May Poppins is such a nice movie ❤

I’m the opposite, I read my faves over and over. Lately, In an effort to make space (4 large bookcases crammed full) I’ve been replacing books with digital versions. Also enjoying audio books whilst I drive to work. You will laugh at this, I’ve just had a whole year listening to the Harry Potter series – over and over! Lol 😀 ❤
I love audio books as well, I listen to them at the gym 🙂
