I know some people who can read the same book over and over again for pleasure. I've read the same book again for school. However, I don't like reading the same book multiple times. How many times do your read a book? What's the most times you've ever read the same book?

What I can recall is that only one book I've read for 3 times because I've known the ending of the book but I don't like it, then I dropped the ending. At the 2nd time, the same process, so I've decide to thoroughly read the book to finish it at the last time. However, for most of the books, I don't read more than 1 times. I prefer to watch TV show more than 1 times if I really like it.

I've loved reading all my life. I learned how when I was just 4 years old and still have my first book that my Mom got me, Messy. I have a huge collection of books and love to re-read them over and over, it seems I always learn something new from them.

It depends what kind of book it is. If it is a self help book or an inspiratinal book I might read it several times and learn something new each time, but if it is a novel I usually don't read it more than once or twice. I love reading and most of the time I prefer to read new books instead of re-reading books that I already know, but there are a few books that I have read more than once, because I liked them so much. Sometimes it is nice to read a book again after several years. When some time has passed I often see the book in a different light.

Well, I can't say I am a bookworm, coz definitely I'm not. hahaha
Finishing a book is already fine with me,but If there's a part that I'm quite confused or I was like " I forgot that part", I will definitely read the part again before I am contented.
But If there's a time I saw my something really interesting to read I can read it again. Maybe the most is 3 times.
I like to spoil myself. HAHA
So I'll read some spoilers in the Internet and some reviews.
I'll buy the book but I will not read it.
If I can't take reading all the spoilers and reviews I can get on the net I'll surely get the book read in just one seat.
And that's the most pleasurable way of reading the book for me~

I read my books over and over,especially if I really like them. I think the most I have ever read the same book would be about 7 or 8 times lol.
besides re-reading them because I like them I also re-read them when I dont have anything new to read,and I read just about everyday it is my way to relax :)

I don't like reading the same book again and again unless i need to read it in order to pass the exam!
Most of the time, i only read once for a book, some people told me that i should read the book twice if the book is really good. Coz you get feeling when you first read it, but you will start thinking when you read it in the second time. I think that is a very good comment.
