Re-Read Challenge...


Nath from Books, Books and More Books is once again hosting the re-read challenge. You can read all about it here. I enjoyed it so much last year that I'm joining again this year. But I was thinking of taking a bit of a different approach this time around. Last year, many of my re-reads were favorites from my keeper shelves.

This year, in addition to re-reading some of my old favorites I thought I would throw in a few that, while I liked them, they're only hanging on my shelves because they are part of a series. And I don't like to break up series. I've done it a few times, knowing that if I needed the ones I got rid of I could always get them from the library. It should be interesting to find out how much I like those books in the re-read.

  1. I'm thinking about doing the same thing. Last year, I read favorites and some of them turned out to be no longer a favorite. A few days ago, I was going through my list of books on Goodreads and sometimes I was really puzzled about the grades I gave (as in "That high? Can't remember a thing!").

    Nath's challenge seems like a good opportunity to check what's up with that. I'm looking forward to it. :)

  2. Taja ~ there are books that I've read and kept and I can't remember what they're about. Then there are the ones that really standout. I hope to weed out some of the less memorable ones. :)
