Today's Feature is:
Q: What would your prefer: reading your favorite book over and over again until you got sick of it OR reading 100s of mediocre books? And why?
A: My favorite book over and over again, for sure! I have actually read all 4 Twilight books over 10 times each. I was seriously addicted. What can I say? Reading mediocre books is just a waste of time. How many times have you finished a book and thought, "Can I have the hours spent on this back??". I know I have
There is always some redeeming quality in mediocre books, but is it enough to make it all worth while? I'd rather get sucked into a world, a story I love over and over than read just to read something. For the most part, however, I CAN'T get into mediocre books. If I don't get hooked soon, you've lost me. I have started many books that I still cannot get into... So, if I stay up until 3am because I just cannot put it down, then and only then, will it all be worth while.
What's your take on this?
New follower from the blog hop! Wow, 10 times?! I am one of those that almost never rereads a book even once...mostly because there are just too many stories out there waiting to be read, and too little time! Here is my FF if you'd like to follow back: http://theonceandfuturelibrarian.blogspot.com/2012/02/feature-and-follow-friday.html

See, I'm quite easily bored and so I'd hate the idea of my favourite book becoming boring. I also hate the idea of being stuck with rubbish books though - so it was a hard decision!

I like to reread my favorite books when I am in a funk. Sometimes after reading books that were just "okay" I start to get burnt out. I like rereading my faves to help lift my reading mood.
ReplyDeleteHopping through. I agree on my fav books. I love re-reading them.
