Challenge Basics:
Name: The Re-Read Challenge
Hosts: Belle of the Literati and So Obsessed With
Starts: January 1, 2015
Ends: December 31, 2015
Eligible Books: Books you've already read.
Why I'm Interested:
I always feel guilty rereading books, but I also really enjoy rereading my old favorites. Especially when I'm feeling vulnerable to scared or sad or disoriented (which are all feelings that go along with Big New Changes, even when they're good).
So, I've been doing a little rereading this year.
And I've been enjoying the heck out of it. So much so, that I almost don't even feel guilty for taking precious reading time away from new-to-me books.
Almost.
But! Adding books to lists makes me feel better. So I went out and found a challenge solely so I could add my guilt-tinged rereads to a totally guilt-absolving list of accomplishments.
Yep, I'm feeling better already.
Some books I'm considering:
My Special Shelf favorites, of course. Also, books I liked enough or am curious enough to re-listen to on audio.

I reread for the same reason.
ReplyDeleteCode Name Verity is on your list! I love that book even though it yanked my heart out of my chest
me too! I was sobbing in my car on the way to work when I got to THAT scene.
DeleteOh I should do this! That's one of my biggest guilty pleasures is rereading and I have so many in mind.
ReplyDeleteI see Twilight is on your list! I don't care what others say, I loved those books. Twilight is what got me back into reading so much and showed me how wonderful YA is. It will always hold a place in my heart!❤
