What books do you read over?  There are a handful of books that I turn back to now and again, like old friends.   I’ve read All the King’s Men (7); The Great Gatsby (3); The Hand Maid’s Tale (2) ; Billy Budd (3);  and a handful of short stories that never fail to captivate my attention.   I am also rereading right now The Hobbit and plan to reread Crime and Punishment, A Confederacy of Dunces, and the Harry Potter Series.

So what books do you reread?   What makes a book the kind that you want to reread over and over again?  Post your comments below.
