Do you reread books or are you done with them once you’ve read them?

I like to reread books sometimes! Rereading is especially good if I’ve just finished something heavy or intense; I can follow that up with something that I’ve enjoyed before so it doesn’t take too much effort and I can have a bit of a break. I also don’t have the greatest retention for what I read, so even if I’ve read something before there’s no way I’ll remember everything. And there are certain books that are comforting and cozy and those are great to reread when I want that kind of mood.

I need to pick up where I left off with that. I started reading Gardens of the Moon last year, but got sidetracked by life about halfway through. Loved what I read of it though!

I was amazed to find the PowerPoints some people have made summarizing the Malazan books (about 300 slides for Gardens of the Moon); I may use them to refresh myself on the first half.
