I honestly didn’t know it was based in a real story when I grabbed it to read. I normally don’t read what a book is about, this was I’m always surprised. When I finally realized it I couldn’t read it fast enough. I didn’t know much of his story other than he’d killed a bunch of women.
When I was a kid, I read Misty of Chincoteague about 50+ times. As an adult it would either be Anne Rice Interview with the Vampire or Tolkein The Hobbit + LOTR and Stephen King Salem’s Lot, The Shining, Carrie, and Pet Sematary.
I don’t re-read a lot of books at all anymore. Too many new ones to read and not enough years left to do it.:)
I am going to buy it. I think it would make a great vacation read since it is so big and I would only have to bring one book. I think I am going to bring it to Florida when I go in February!
I don’t ever reread a book. I’m not a fast reader, and I have so many others to read. But, I did reread Nancy Drew’s The Hidden Staircase, because I had given both my granddaughters the entire set of ND books. I thought I should be able to talk about them. Sadly, I think neither granddaughter ever read them.
NANCY DREW books are wonderful. If your Granddaughters didn’t read them…, they missed out. I also read and loved the TRIXIE BELDON series. I visited my 8 year old Grandson and tried to read “The Time Machine”. Sadly, he had no interest in it. ?
I read the bible cover to cover when I was 12, well maybe not the begats-ain’t nobody got time for that. I was glad I did, it helped to finalize my feelings about religions.
Okay so as for novels I have never re read one. But I would say I’ve read Dr.Seuss books more than once as I have worked some with kids as well as having 5 niece’s and a grand Nephew.

I agree…there’s only a couple I re-read
IT by Stephen king or Edgewise by Graham Masterton.
I heard Dead Zone by King was good. Did not read. Did you read it?
@Lisa I believe I read this one a very long time ago and need to read it again. It is a very good book!
I never read it. I would like to!
I hope you get a chance to!
I am going to buy it. I think it would make a great vacation read since it is so big and I would only have to bring one book. I think I am going to bring it to Florida when I go in February!
Ok yay! I hope you enjoy the book! Have a great vacation too.
Thank!
