When I get homesick at college I tend to go through my favorite scenes from books, especially ones I read in high school.Samhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17065828205340837046noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6296151610997211986.post-64248688857321721632017-08-19T19:34:44.604-05:002017-08-19T19:34:44.604-05:00I don't reread all that often - never really h...I don't reread all that often - never really have, aside from HP or certain passages of other favorites.Lauren Stoolfirehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07777860030600932061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6296151610997211986.post-23225533191514940802017-08-18T21:07:17.263-05:002017-08-18T21:07:17.263-05:00Haha, right?!

Hmm that's fair; normally when I reread I change my opinion for the better, but now that I'm not enjoying them as much it is something I need to worry about to. Haha yeah I've read GOT several times (it's the rest of the series that I have a hard time continuing with for whatever reason...).<br /><br />Hmm it sounds super familiar and looking it up the cover is super familiar as well, but I can't place whether I actually read it or not. It's possible I borrowed it from someone, or from the library, but never read it. Definitely adding it to my TBR; thanks for the rec. As for Gilded Cage, I got halfway through an ARC but for some reason I put it down before finishing. I absolutely need to finish it though, especially if you liked it!Samhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17065828205340837046noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6296151610997211986.post-89246463379948573642017-08-18T21:02:26.983-05:002017-08-18T21:02:26.983-05:00Oh that's a great goal to set for yourself. I ...Oh that's a great goal to set for yourself. I definitely think that putting more time between reads helps; at least for me, with my poor memory, I forget a lot about details and plot after about two years, so it can become like reading a book for the first time.<br /><br />It's so hard to divide time between new books and old, well loved, books. Hopefully someday it will become easier to choose, haha.

I'm not a rereader because I don't want to change my opinion about a book I loved (except for ASOIAF, I don't think I can grow out of it). What you said about YA is completely true. I've been in a slump for two weeks just because I can't find a book with an original concept. They're all about the same things (especially in YA fantasy, the girl who wants to take back her kingdom ? Boring.) <br /><br />Hum... a book that's different... Have you read Stolen by Lucy Christopher ? I know you're not really into contemporaries but this one is pretty interesting. Or Gilded Cage, this book is amazing.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06667430696236055164noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6296151610997211986.post-7554026364382740512017-08-18T08:27:37.509-05:002017-08-18T08:27:37.509-05:00I’ve been trying to reread one old favorite every ...I’ve been trying to reread one old favorite every month this year. So far, I haven’t had trouble getting into them. Maybe because it has been so many years since I originally read them. I do feel guilty about rereading when my TBR shelf is full of new books, though.<br /><br />Aj @ <a href="http://ajsterkel.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Read All The Things!</a><br />Aj @ Read All The Things!https://www.blogger.com/profile/02860483414620371093noreply@blogger.com
