A book you can read over and over again?

[JennaTooIs]

I don't have a lot of room for books so I'd like a few goodens I can reread. What are yours?

All the Green Knowes , I Claudius and Claudius the God

Bigot Hall and all the Accomplice books by Steve Aylesbury, amen

Steve Aylett! Flipping spellcheck

Good choices. I’m a big fan of children’s books (love The Railway Children). Whether or not adults should read them is one of those things that divides the room. I’m totally in favour. Some of my favourite re-reads are children’s books:

The Wind in the Willows
The Voyage of the Dawntreader (best of the Narnia series imo)
Anything by Roald Dahl (preferably uncensored by the secret police)
Kipling’s Just So stories
The Hobbit
Tintin

There used to be a best selling series about an American priest called the Mitford series by Jan Karon. I'm not sure it was re reading material but anyone looking for comfort reading should track them down

The Silver Chair for me.

Terry Pratchett’s Discworld, Kerry Greenwood’s Phryne Fisher and Corinna Chapman, and back in the day, my books on French history. My attitude is that if I don’t read books over and over then they were a waste of money.
