Rereads. Rebekah Send a noteboard - 07/12/2010 09:47:11 PM
I've been doing a lot of rereading recently - both to get me through a highly unpleasant book I've been reading for a month, and because my brain doesn't want to do new stuff.

It's great. I'm still amazed by how much "new" stuff there is in a book I've already read. EM Forster is cleverer than I remembered (and that takes some doing), and Georgette Heyer funnier.

I think Winter is a good season for rereading. It's a literary form of comfort food.

Books you reread a lot are like old friends - 08/12/2010 05:47:05 PM 468 Views
Slightly raggedy old friends, in some cases. - 08/12/2010 08:33:46 PM 444 Views
