   There are two books I must reread every year for about the last twenty years.. Hind's Feet on High Places, and In His Steps. The first helped me break free to survive, and the second inspired me to try harder to help others. Holly

      By the way, the Bible doesn't really count unless you've read it cover-to-cover once in the first place and plan on going cover to cover again.  Reading some of the same passages over and over again at church over the years doesn't count not that I am saying that is what the lady was going to do.  She just reminded me.

   I have finished Terry Goodkind's Sword of Truth series and enjoyed it immensly.  The s television series The Seeker is based on these books. If you are a fan of Ayn Rand you will love this series.  I finished it over the summer and it is beginning to get interesting again.  I will definetly read the series again.

    I read 1984 by George Orwell twice - once because I was forced to in high school and then once for myself last year.

    I've read very few books twice, but I absolutely love "The Walking Drum" by Louis L'Amour - if you like Clive Cussler or Medieval fiction, that book is one of the best I've ever read.  I've read the "Song of Ice and Fire" series by George R.R. Martin twice and am stunned by just how good those books are.  "Ender's Game" is always an easy and enjoyable read, as well.  Good topic!

       honestly, I know there's a book that's used in the movie, but until relatively recently, I thought that book in the film was just a prop or something and didn't know that there really was a book...
       
       my wife ended up buying it to use as a prop/excerpt or something for a math class she was teaching on probability...

    I almost never read books more than once.  My entire library consists of about a dozen books (most of them non-fiction) for that reason.
    
    If I do re-read something, it's never for the story or the message, it's to admire the clever use of language.  I've re-read the Rumpole stories more than once, and some of my Terry Pratchetts.
