Very rarely, but I always end up keeping books thinking I may want to read it again one day.

It's always a possibility, especially if I really liked a book or haven't read it in years.

I've only really re-read Palahniuk's books. I always find something new in them each time I read them.

I've worn out copies of some books by reading them so much. Others I read once and give away. I have an e-reader now though, so have the option to check out e-books from the library. If I like it enough to want to read it more than once I'll purchase it. If I like the author a great deal I'll buy the rest of their books right off too.

I have been known to, but very few of them.

I never do because I know what is going to happen so I just skip a ton of the pages... so it is pointless for me to try to re read it!

Yes. In most cases I reread books for inspiration (erotica) or for looking at some facts to reassure my understanding (research/history) on the topics I have an interest in.

Sometimes it is like seeing a movie over again, there are some new details that come out in the storyline.

All the time. Particularly those in a series.

There are books I've read over a hundred times, and books I've only read once--or didn't finish.

Oh yes, if I enjoyed it! I have lost count of how many times I have read Lord of the Rings, for example, or my Tony Hillerman novels....

Yes, especially when it's part of a series and it's been a long time since the last book.

It has too be a pretty good book to read it again. Usually, it is god enough that I re-read more than once

It soo hard to me to re-read a book. In all my life I just have 2 books re-read and are in history.

I like to reread books when it's been long enough that I don't remember them well. After a number of years, it's like reading a whole new book to me!

Yes, but only if they are something really special. 'American Gods' by Neil Gaiman is one of my favourite books, and I've read it half a dozen times or more.

Not usually.

If it's been many years and I've forgotten it to a great enough degree, I might.

Otherwise, I can't concentrate if the words are fresh and familiar.

No because I read mysteries and it wouldn't be fun to know who did it ahead of time.

I often re-read books, if they're decent. For example, I'm planning a re-read of the Arthur trilogy by Bernard Cornwell, by far my favourite books.

Yes. I keep all my favorites to reread over and over. Books can be such good old friends. I also like that when I reread certain books, I feel the memories that go along with them: reading the Narnia books with a flashlight under the covers, squeeing over the Valdemar books with my friends, my soccer coach who first loaned me Harry Potter, first masturbating to Jamie Fraser in Outlander

The ones I really love I will reread, but a while has to pass before I can.
