At the peak I was reading "Goodnight Moon" at a pace of ~5000 times per year, that was only for a couple weeks though.

- slowmovintarget 12y agoI plan on reading "Goodnight Dune" [1] to my daughter. Funny that the article's author wrote of Dune as one of the books to be read over and over. I used to do that. I've only read it 7 times, though, not 100. [1] http://goodnightdune.com/ http://goodnightdune.com/
- zimbu668 12y agoI keep trying with the Dune series, but the big-O time is n^2 when you read them like this: Dune<pause> Dune, Dune Messiah<pause> Dune, Dune Messiah, Children of Dune<pause> Dune, Dune Messiah, Children of Dune, God Emperor of Dune <pause> Dune, Dune Messiah, Children of Dune, God Emperor of Dune, Heretics of Dune <pause> I don't think I have it in me to do that again for Chapterhouse: Dune.
- slowmovintarget 12y agoI don't think I could get through all 6 books again. I did read all of the prequels and "Dune 7" but they were utter crap (not written by Frank Herbert but based on his notes). Dune, Dune Messiah, and Children of Dune are worthwhile. But the sex-witches-fleeing-the-machines combined with everybody's a Kwizatz Haderach got a little tiresome. (I now picture Oprah gleefully shouting, "You're a Kwisatz Haderach... and you're a Kwisatz Haderach... everyone gets to be a Kwisatz Haderach!"
