Every week, I'll be making a pinned post inviting you to share your favorite books with the slop-hungry hogs of Hexbear yummy. Each week will be loosely structured around a particular genre, time period or other theme .

For the opening week's theme: Books you have read at least three times

Optional nerd discussion questions

What keeps or kept you coming back to them? How did your relationship to the text change across multiple readings?

If you have suggestions for future themes, DM me!

If you want to be pinged when I post the thread in the future, respond to this comment in the thread

    I used to read so much as a kid that I definitely reread some things that much but nothing sticks out in my now-addled brain. Probably LOTR, Dune, some harry potter, etc. But I was never much for rereading past twice.... OH and in high school I read most of John Green's books several times. Some are better than others

    more recently, I know I read Psychopolitics by Byung-Chul Han at least twice to make sure it wasn't going over my head but it's short. And I'll probably have to revisit some parenti/losurdo books more than once I suspect. OH also The Gentrification of the Mind by Sarah Schulman and Trans Liberation by leslie-shining got rereads for this site

      Looking for Alaska is the best and I will die on this hill.

        yeah probably is. I think I may have read paper towns more times, but I think looking back it's maybe not great
