To Reread or Not to Reread…I’m sorry, what was the question?
Bad jokes aside, I am quite surprised at how many people don't actually like to reread books. I'm equally surprised by how many of those readers think that I am weird because I do. “A truly great book should be read in youth, again in maturity and once more in old age, as a fine… Continue reading To Reread or Not to Reread…I’m sorry, what was the question?
