Books you have read....and read again thread 22:16 - Mar 8 with 1324 viewsThrasher6

Various things have made me do this lately and will be interested by the feedback. You can miss a lot first time around and surprising how much better the experience is...over to you.

The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings a few times.

Decided recently to read The Passage again. Never read all 3 books in the series as the follow up book, The Twelve, I didn't like the ending.

After watching the abortion they made of a TV series (should have been made by HBO or the like) I read up on the last book and the consensus was the last book righted the wrongs of the second. So will buy the third and re-read the whole series.

The first one was a great read for me.

Slightly fascinated by polar expeditions in that great Victorian era...and have re-read them several times. Also the Zulu Wars...anything of the colonial times really...not in a jingoistic sense...but it's sense of a time and a place.

I must have read Lotr a hundred times. The Hobbit not so much but I love the silmarillion.

The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which.

If you have not read it I would recommend 'The Washing of the Spears'. Published a number of years ago but still available.

I’d say the first one, Harris’s Covenant. You’ll be hooked in and unable to put it down.

I've read the Hobbit/LOTR twice but I couldn't get on with the Silmarillion.

The advantage of having a kindle is I can keep all the books and not use up all the space so all of them will be read again at some point.

So that'll be Simon Scarrows books about Rome, the "Eagles" series, Gordon Doherty,, AA Haviaras, there'll be Mary Beards book SPQR which I'll be starting again soon, maybe once I've finished the "Whale road chronicles" by Tim Hodkinson.

I've discovered that although I love history I'm not so great at reading entirely factual books yet I can sit here all day and watch factual history on tv. Lucy Worsley, Susannah Lipscomb, Bettany Hughes, Kate Williams, Dan Snow.

Just my opinion, but WTF do I know anyway?

The Tattooist of Auschwitz, Cilkas Journey,and Quitters never win by Michael Bisping, now if i were to read a book a second time these three currently spring to mind simply because they were great reads.

Anyone of a certain age will remember Lloydy down Langland, and him being a local bobby.

A great read and some people may recognise some of the "characters" in the book.

Everyday above ground ... Is a good day! 😎
