There are books I practically know by heart. I find it so hard to find good books that when I find one, I read it over and over and over. I have some books that I've read at least 30 times.

I have quite a few I have read way too many times. If its something really good I will buy a second copy to loan out or give away, it drives me nuts if people break the spines or destroy my books. I'm way too possessive.

I've re-read the Harry Potter books, Jane Austin (esp. P &P), Bridget Jones and the Shopaholic series. I usually keep my books, but beach reads or cheap mysteries by those authors who release books every other month I give away or sell.

I don't give away my books... reason is I dont read a lot of books and what I do I like to "show" them off!

I don't reread my books either. I don't rewatch movies unless I LOVE IT SO MUCH because I remember pretty much everything I read/watch which sometimes sucks.

I'll reread something if I really liked it and I'm in the mood to read when I don't have a new book. And I keep all my books but I'm probably going to sell them before I move 500 miles away next year. It's going to to be hard to get rid of them but it's going to be a lot to move every few years and I'll need the money.

All the time.

I get attached to books I really enjoyed.

I'm the same.

I've re-read Catcher in the Rye and Prozac Nation a bunch of times.

I work in a library, so I usually only buy books that I'm fairly sure I'll want to read again.
And yes, I have re-read books. Since I buy so few books, I normally keep them, but I do give some away.

I can't. I always remember what happened.

i've re-read quite a few books. I keep all my books. I have my own lil library in my apt. I'm not a saver with anything except 4 books. And I very rarely lend them out to people. I will usually lend almost anything i own out and don't think twice about it, but I'm a lil crazy when it comes to my books. i love them

I keep my books, unless I didn't like the book, and then I'll donate it or give it to a friend.

I usually go a year or so between re-reading -- that way I can forget what happened.

Lately, though, I've been broke so I've been using the library religiously. Perk is that it doesn't add any books to my already over-stocked collection.

I've reread almost all of my books - in fact, off the top of my head the only book I own that I haven't reread are Lisey's Story by Stephen King and The Power of One.

Like someone above said, it's all about sinking back into the story and the characters. And sometimes finding something new that wasn't noticed on the first or second read.

And yeah, I keep all my books.

I reread books all the time. I have at least a thousand books... probably more. I keep them everywhere - the kitchen, the bathroom, my room and the majority in my office.

I try to only buy books I'll reread, but occasionally, I slip up and buy one that I won't reread EVER (Jennifer Weiner... I'm looking at you) and I end up giving those away.

I didn't have access to a library for about ten years. So yeah, I reread a lot.

A few series of favorites have become almost like therapy. Feeling down or stressed? Get out my Melanie Rawn books.

I've never given a book away. I should really clear out my library a bit before moving it 400 miles, but I don't know how to let go.

If I like the book enough, I'll re-read it.

I have been reading through some posts and see that people say they're going to go back to a book and read it again.
I have never read a book a second time. I feel abnormal now

Also, do you guys keep your books? I give mine away. I would keep them if I had more space in my room, but I don't. I gave 20 books to my 2nd grade teacher this year, she was sooo happy! (all Dean Koontz)
