That's like asking how many times you can read the same damn book.

- nkassis 16y agoI don't get it when people find it weird that I will reread some books multiple times. I've read some books once every year or so and even my wife thinks I'm weird. She's a serial book reader (150 books as of now for the year, almost one a day) and will sell them as soon as she reads them, I don't work that way even after she tries to push me into selling some books I just can't.
- eru 16y agoIt's interesting sometimes, how the book seems to change after another reading. But it's probably you that's changed.
- Psyonic 16y agoPartly, sure. Also, knowing what happens makes it a different experience. No sense of wonder or mystery, more focus on the prose, storytelling ability, etc.
- Psyonic 16y agoWhat kind of books does she read, that she can read 150 in a 9 months And when does she read these books? Good Lord! Unless she reads like Kim Peak... a page in like 2 seconds, then I suppose 150 books is well within reason.
- nkassis 16y agoShe had the summer off before starting a master(in library science no less ;p). She also participated in a few 24 hour reading marathons. She has a blog about stuff she reads: http://talesandtreats.blogspot.com/ http://talesandtreats.blogspot.com/
- Psyonic 16y agoImpressive list, definitely. Sounds like you have yourself an interesting lady!
- nhebb 16y agoNo it's not. Even for fiction, the plot depth of the books I've read multiple times is incomparable to the plot depth of the movies on the all time best selling DVD lists. That is, unless you think that Avatar and Twilight had really deep plots.
- michaelbuckbee 16y agoAfter working for hours on end it's nice to unwind by reading a little before going to sleep. If I re-read a book it guarantees that I won't get sucked in wondering what will happen next. Fewer side effects than Ambien anyway.
