Absolutely, because when you reread a book, you’re going to find a new book that you missed the first time through.

yes, for me a re read book is being re read because it’s been a LONG time since I’ve read it the first time..but I do want to re read Game of thrones and I read that two years ago I think. In the future my library is going to do Great Expectations for a book discussion and I read that one five years ago, looking forward to that, whenever that is.

Why wouldn’t they be? A book is a book no matter how I read it or how many times I read it

Thats the exact question I was asking myself…on goodreads, it doesnt count..but in fact, its a read book. I reread “The tunnel” by Ernesto Sabato, actually heard it, and loved it, like the first time I read it.

Goodreads does now. They introduced that feature last year. Because it wouldn’t count books you had read the previous year. Now you just add another date read to the review.

Oh, didnt know that, tried to mark this book as reread, but it counted as read. Should try it again, thanks for letting me know. ?

I think you have to click on the book and get to the review page to do it because on the review page there is an option to put a new date etc. I haven’t done it as I don’t re-read that often.

Dorothy

Yeah. I did it with Memoirs of a Geisha. Read it in ’16 and ’17.

Ilda

Did it, went to the book, clicked “read” and it appeared as a book I have read today ? yess!

Dorothy

Too many people complained about it not counting books I suppose.

Ilda

Haha its a bit childish, i guess..once you read the book, and you enjoy it, it doesnt matter that much if you count it or not ? yet, its fun to have a calendar with the dates when you have read and reread a book. By the way, I have liked “Memoirs of a Geisha” a lot, thinking of rereading that as well. ?

I’ve re-read it a number of times

I am thinking about re-reading a few books this year and if I end up doing so they will count especially since a few of them are relatively large books and will likely take a fair bit of my reading time.

Its debatable for me. If its a book i haven’t read in years yeah I’ll count it but if its one one I read every year I wouldn’t. But I hardly do rereads any way as I’m so busy trying to read new adventures.

Just for tracking purposes. It’s kinda neat to see what you’ve read by the end of the year.

Yes, especially since Goodreads brought in the function that allows you to post multiple read dates.

I don’t count them cause I rarely re-read anything. I usually trade them in or donate them.

I always count them. I mark them as a reread, but I count them. I have favorites I like to read again and again, I sometimes think of one I read a long, long time ago (like high school) and I’ll read it again.
