Considering I am currently rereading the Stormlight Archive - I’ll go with that.

Witcher, I've read it at least once every two/three years for the last 18 years and it's still entertaining.

I'm a big rereader in general, but occasionally a book will grab me so hard that I finish it & begin again right away. I've had two of those in the past year:

  • Moonbound by Robin Sloan
  • Cahokia Jazz by Francis Spufford

The Diary of Edward the Hamster 1990–1990
its short so suitible for a quick reread & even for people who dont like books
its like a childbook in the amount of text but more for adults

Infinite Jest. Takes about like 2 years to read though lol.

Synchronicity because I just put a book on hold at the library that I'm going to read again. It is called "Galileo's Dream" by Kim Stanley Robinson, and it's half historical fiction, half science fiction about: "what if future humans living on the Galilean moons of Jupiter discovered time travel and needed Galileo's help?"

Kokoro.

Also have vague plans to reread Der Zauberberg

Likely also will reread V. and the Count of Monte Christo at some point.
