When you get to be my age, it seems like a lot of the books you read over are like reading them for the first time. I guess an advantage of getting old?
@Marie I was thinking more of the fact my memory is gone, not my understanding as an adult, the book is better. ? Although a lot of times, it is. Watership Down was a book like that for me.
@Naomi huh…that is one I should probably go back and read again because I do not remember anything about it. I know I read it, but that’s all. Lordy….old age is a bitch!???
I wish I could read Harry Potter for the first time, again. I only just read the series for the first time late 2017-early 2018 and I already miss it so much.

It’s true. I recently read Tom Sawyer again and oh, my! I missed a lot fifty-five years ago when I read it for the first time. ??

I had forgotten about Helen Van Slyke. Her books are so good. I never reread, but may have to reconsider.
I wish I could read Harry Potter for the first time, again. I only just read the series for the first time late 2017-early 2018 and I already miss it so much.
Ready Player One – reading it was such a great experience. I plan to read it many more times, but as always, there’s no time like the first time.
The Stand

OMG I Ioved it, although I feel the end of the trilogy was lacking quite a bit compared to how it started out
