Top 5 Wednesday was originally created and run by Lainey aka gingerreadslainey (Youtube channel) but it is now being run by Sam aka Thoughts on tomes (Youtube channel). Each week there is a different topic. This week it’s book you want to re-read. I am a big fan of revisiting books and there are quite a few books that I’ve re-read numerous times. Having said that I haven’t done a lot of rereading this past year but I definitely have some books I want to revisit. Let’s get onto the books.

• Watership Down / Richard Adams – if you’ve been following this blog for a while now, you will know my love for this series. I haven’t read it for quite some time now and I am so excited to read the illustrated edition. I hope to reread this one soon.

• North and South / Elizabeth Gaskell – this is one of my all time favourite classics and it has been far too long since I read it the last time. The BBC adaptation is really good as well.

• The Sublte Knife / Philip Pullman – I reread Northen Lights earlier this year so I would love to continue to reread this trilogy – it is one of my all time favourite series.

• Never Let Me Go / Kazuo Ishiguro – again this is one of my all time favourite books and it is been ages since I read it. I really want to reread soon and since it is quite short I hope this will happen soon.

• The Gift / Alison Croggon – I am hoping to do a reread of this series with a friend, probably not until next year though. I love this series so much and again it has been ages since I last read it. I am so excited to reread this.

There are so many books I want to reread, but I actually found it quite easy to narrow it down to five. I think I might set aside a month next year to dedicate to rereads, or every other month set aside one book to reread. I find it kind of comforting revisiting my favourite books :). I hope you are all having a wonderful day and I will see you next time.
