Books I’m Worried I Might Not Love as Much the Second Time Around

Once upon a time I never reread books. I never thought I'd love a book I reread as much the second time around.

But that was before I discovered how much I love rereading. 

I wouldn't be surprised if a quarter or a half of the books I read this year are rereads.

Still, I do worry that some of the books I hope to reread this year will not live up to that first time.

Here are some of the books I'm hoping to reread this year.


The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien

The Fellowship of the Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien

The Two Towers by J.R.R. Tolkien

The Return of the King by J.R.R. Tolkien

The Glass Bead Game by Herman Hesse

Middlemarch by George Eliot

The Phantom Tollbooth by Norton Juster

The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan

The Wind Up Bird Chronicle by Haruki Murakami

The Gold Bug Variations by Richard Powers

A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine L'Engle


Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish in June of 2010 and was moved to That Artsy Reader Girl in January of 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together. Each Tuesday That Artsy Reader Girl assigns a topic and then post her top ten list that fits that topic. You’re more than welcome to join her and create your own top ten (or 2, 5, 20, etc.) list as well. Feel free to put a unique spin on the topic to make it work for you! Please link back to That Artsy Reader Girl in your own post so that others know where to find more information.
