Books that you could read over and over

Hello myLot, I hope everyone is staying safe. I know most of you are staying indoors to avoid the coronavirus. We've been inside all week and it feels like so much longer. I'm suffering from cabin fever just a bit so I've been reading to keep myself occupied. Right now I'm rereading "The Night Circus" by Erin Morgenstern. It's one of my favorites, it's so beautifully imaginative, full of wonderful little descriptive details that spin this whole fantastical world. It is about a traveling circus that comes to town unannounced, a place inspired by dreams. I really recommend it if you want to read something magical. This book along with the Harry Potter series are books I like to read again every few years. What is a book/series you've read that you could visit over and over again? Have you read anything good lately? Have a wonderful night. Drawing by me, fanart of The Night Circus

I have read The Magus, by John Fowles, several times. I have also read A High Wind In Jamaica, by Richard Hughes, several times. Among my other favorite re-reads are Doyle's Holmes stories, and Mark Twain's short stories.

@isweartokira I grew up in the TV generation and have a short attention span. I recommend Mark Twain's short stories. Each is only about 20 page long.

That is a wonderful drawing, I am also reading over some books, I have two books written about NYC my hometown. One is about the neighborhoods in Manhattan and on about Brooklyn where I come from, So I started reading about Manhattan again and during that time I can visit my hometown and that is great for me,

I like to read 'I Heard the Owl Call my Name' every now and again but I've lost my copy of it at the moment.

@isweartokira I think I lent it to someone. I really need to stop lending books.

I love to read books and the Night Circus sounds like something I would enjoy. One of my favorite books is the Picture of Dorin Gray. I have read it many times. I am into nonfiction books as well.

I do not normally read any book more than once, the same with watching films . I do not even like watching repeats of programmes on TV. That book you are reading does sound interesting, I have not read it before so I will look out for it.

it's rare for me to reread or rewatch series/movies, too. but every once in a while one pops up that I really like. if you end up reading it I hope you enjoy it :)
