Books you could re-read for the first time

Every single Terry Pratchett book.

This
And Lord of the Rings.

If you enjoyed the Flashman books, then definitely read the McAuslan books by GMF, which I gather were 80% based on his own experiences and above all, read his Quartered Safe Out Here, which many people rate as the best memoir of fighting in Burma in 1944/45.
It may be out of fashion, but respecting that people have honest reasons for thinking differently from you helps build a society which respects differences.

[Dearelliot]

Almost all of John Sandford's books, almost. I recently, last year or so, went to the library and reread most of them in large print. Funny, I hardly remembered any of the stories...

I'm waiting for more of the 'Letty' books to come out. Her and 'That Fuckin' Flowers' are definitely my fav.

Now, thinking more about that, I want to write some stories about Letty...

Does Paradise Lost count as a "book?"

I'm saying yes. Not a novel, but unless you find it on a scroll or stone tablets, I'm for calling it a book.

 

[big_cane_sugar]

Romance of the Three Kingdoms. No way I will ever do that again, but in fantasy world, I would.

All the King's Men.

A Tale of Love and Darkness.

The Once and Future King.

Nonfiction edition: McPherson's The Battle Cry of Freedom

I'm saying yes. Not a novel, but unless you find it on a scroll or stone tablets, I'm for calling it a book.

So Gilgamesh doesn't count?
