Welcome to Top Ten Tuesday, a weekly bookish meme hosted by Jana @ That Artsy Reader Girl that features a different bookish topic every week.
Today’s topic is Books I’d Like to Re-read
It’s been some weeks since I’ve done the Top Ten Tuesdays and I’ve missed some really great topics. I’ve had some things going on but I’m hoping to get back some semblance of normalcy and do the TTTs regularly again. Please bear with me!
I am big on rereading because I tend to rush over details when I read books the first time, and rereading helps me appreciate the books more and see things I didn’t see before. I’ve previously done a TTT for Books I Love to Reread, so I won’t repeat the same titles. The ones below are books I intend to reread soon. Hopefully before the year is over!
Top Ten Books I’d Like to Reread
- The Long Walk by Stephen King – The movie is coming out and of course I have to reread this before then!
- The Clan of the Cave Bear by Jean M. Auel – I might leave this until later because I want to reread the whole series and that means I need to have dedicated time for all of them.
- The Hummingbird by Stephen P. Kiernan – I’ve mentioned this author many times as one of my favorite underrated authors. This may be my favorite book he’s written.
- Momo by Michael Ende – The author is better known for writing The Neverending Story, which I love, but I love Momo more and I need to reread it.
- Bel Canto by Ann Patchett – I was enchanted by this book when I read it the first time and it’s been a long while.
- Cat’s Eye by Margaret Atwood – This one touched me in a visceral way and has been on my reread list for a while. I need to make it happen.
- Grass by Sheri S. Tepper – I love this author but haven’t read a lot of her works. This book is one of my favorite books.
- Dragons of Autumn Twilight by Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman – This is another series I need to allocate dedicated time for. I love the characters and it’s been too long since I read it.
- The Book of Strange New Things by Michel Faber – I remember thinking that every married couple needs to read this. I don’t remember why, but I guess that’s why I have to reread it.
- The Season of Passage by Christopher Pike – I used to reread this regularly as a teenager, but I can’t remember the last time I read it. It’s time!
Have you read any of these books? What did you think of them? Would you read any of these books?
Ooh, it’s been a bit since I did Top Ten Tuesday (just so busy), but this topic tempts me. I love rereading books.
I really want to get round to reading Momo for the first time!
Oh my goodness! I am shocked that I have not read any of these!! I hope you get to them. 🙂
I have not read any of these, but I hope you are able to enjoy them again soonish 🙂 I have only in the last few years learned the value of rereading. Have a great week and welcome back!
I often think of rereading books and would like to do more of it. I read Clan of the Cave Bear and the rest of the series and I enjoyed Momo so many years ago that now I can not remember any of it. It has the advantage that we once enjoyed them so we have a high chance of doing so again.
Is it weird if I just read The Clan of the Cave Bear without reading any others? Because I got this book while traveling not realizing it’s a series and I’m curious if I just… start there… would it make enough sense? xD Might be a curious experiment.
It has been so long since I’ve read that Weis & Hickman series! Happy reading!
The Clan of the Cave Bear is even better reread!
Welcome back to TTT! I was a HUGE Christopher Pike fan as a teenager. I should reread those books I loved back then. I hope you enjoy your rereads.
Happy TTT (on a Thursday)!

Because of you, I bought Momo—now I just need to find time to read it!
