Book Love

What book could you read over and over again?

I can think of several books I’ve read over and over. I tend to get attached to books and sometimes obsessed. Lately, I’m reading Iain Gilchrust’s new book, ‘The Matter of Things’ which I might read over and over because its so interesting that I don’t want to miss anything. I’ve always been curious about brain science and especially about how each hemisphere has such a different roles.

One of my favorite re-readable book is called ‘Let’s Pretend This Never Happened‘ by Jenny Lawson. Her wry sense of humor cracks me up every time.

And then there are my classics favs which I get something different from each time I revisit. Jane Eyr, Anna Karenena, Grapes of wrath to name a very few…

And finally the books I’ve read and reread to my kids and grandkids. Picture books like Miss Ruphiius, Stella Luna, Thundercakes and Strega Nona, and chapter books like Narnia, Little House, and the Indian in the Cupboard. (I’ve read these entire series out loud at least three times each) Narnia, if you read all the books, isn’t relgious, but it does have some great stories about magic and humanness and imagination. My kids loved it.

  1. I’ve made a habit of reading different translatons of Les MIz….they’re pretty much all the same, I wish I could read French to not have to resort to the translations, but such an amazing story…

    In high school I reread Lord of the Rings at least once a semester….now, after the movies, I can’t anymore…
