Top Ten Tuesday: Rainy Day Reads

This week is all about books to read on a rainy day. There's nothing better than settling in on the couch with a cozy blanket curled up with a dog or two at your feet while you enjoy a great book.

I don't re-read a lot of books, but here are some that I would like to re-read on a cold rainy day.

and the last book is whatever book I have from the library that I'm dying to read.

Top Ten Tuesday: Re-Reading Favorite Reads from Teen Years

This week's topic is books favorite books I would like to reread now that I read and loved during my teen years/childhood. I don't remember that many books from this era in my life. I read a lot of books, but clearly not that many that I want to go back and read again.

Winter Dreams Christmas Love: I recently bought this book for both myself and my sister so we could re-read any old time we wanted as we both loved it. 

Just as Long as We're Together: I read this book until it fell apart and then I kept reading it a few more times.

Emily of New Moon: I loved this trilogy and read it at least once a year.

Berlin Game: and Janus Imperative: I started read lots of spy novels in high school

Sunfire Romances; I read these mostly in 6th grade and would like to go back and read one now.

Top Ten Tuesday: ReReading

This week's topic is re-reading. I don't re-read usually unless it's a book for book club because I don't have time to read all the books I want to read now - let alone go back and re-read, so it's rare. But it's also the reason I've stalled on so many series because I can't remember what happened in the previous books.

Re-Read for Pleasure:

Harry Potter series: I'm reading Harry Potter and the Art of Spying right now and it's making me want to go back and re-read all the books.

Anna, Lola, and Isla - because I loved these books

Pride and Prejudice

A mixture of Both:

Princess Diaries series

Mediator series 

Sarah Maclean's adult romances - because the last book is a character from a previous series and I never put together the clues.

Poison Study series

Re-Read to Remember:

Percy Jackson series (2-3)

Nicholas Flamel series (2-4)

Game of Thrones series 

Top Ten Books

This week is a rewind. I'm choosing Top Ten Books I Want To Reread. I have a hard time re-reading books unless it's for a book club. There are SO many books that I want to read that i'ts hard to take the time to re-read something. Sometimes that's a problem in series books because I forget what happened previously. Usually instead of re-reading multiple books, I stop reading the series, which I hate! Part of it, I think is I don't want to the series to end. Either way, I need to get better at re-reading.

Secrets of the Immortal Life of Nicholas Flamel: I really love this series, but when I started reading The Warlock, I couldn't remember what happened before. I want to re-read the first four books and then read the last two.

Percy Jackson: I read the first three and LOVED them. The fourth book came out and I didn't snag it first. Then too much time went by and I forgot most of what happened earlier. 

Song of Ice and Fire series: My husband and I have been reading Dance of Dragons forever...he reads them aloud and it seems we never carve out time for it. I also forget things that came before, so he spends time recounting the details that I've forgotten.
