Reading and Re-Reading

[Crossposted from Tumblr, because I never seem to post anything here otherwise...]
 
Never mind all the books on your To Be Read shelf, because who knows why you’re reading them or if they’re going to be any good. I want to know what’s on your To Be Re-Read shelf — the books you loved so much you’re planning to revisit them for the second, third, or mumbletyseventh time.
 
My TBRR shelf right now consists of:
  • Till We Have Faces, Out of the Silent Planet and Perelandra by C.S. Lewis
  • The Golden Key and Other Stories and The Lost Princess by George MacDonald
  • The Dragon With a Chocolate Heart by Stephanie Burgis (published hardcover, previously read in manuscript)
  • Something Dark and Holy by Emily A. Duncan (still in manuscript, but final draft -- to be published in 2019)
And I’m also re-reading Elizabeth E. Wein’s The Sunbird aloud to my youngest son.
 
What’s in your TBRR pile lately, if you have one?

I find Anne Bishop's Black Jewels books really soothing and, since I just finished the latest of her Others books, I may do a reread of hers.

Um. Probably something by Stephen King but which one exactly varies. Usually The Stand.

And I have not recently reread anything by Jacqueline Carey so I should do the thing.
