Do you reread books or are you done with them once you’ve read them?

I like to reread books sometimes! Rereading is especially good if I’ve just finished something heavy or intense; I can follow that up with something that I’ve enjoyed before so it doesn’t take too much effort and I can have a bit of a break. I also don’t have the greatest retention for what I read, so even if I’ve read something before there’s no way I’ll remember everything. And there are certain books that are comforting and cozy and those are great to reread when I want that kind of mood.

      I just finished a reread of the WOT books. Would you recommend the Death Gate Cycle as a good way to fill the gap that I’m now feeling from a lack of a 10k-word series to sink into every night?

        Death Gate Cycle is a classic, dragonlance-like fantasy. It takes itself noticeably less serious than WoT. But it’s pretty fun, good cast of characters.

        It’s the first fantasy series I ever read so it holds a special place for me, even if WoT is my favorite.
