Then again, some of the movies are worth seeing many times over, even if I can quote most of the lines.Weird, the program moved my first comment above yours, even though I commented later than you. It put in a bad time stamp, too.
I read the same series of books over all the time because I can’t find any recent books that are worth reading—too much violence, foul language and sex—I far as I am concerned(talking fiction only) ! ! ! Non-fiction, books on history, I can never have a enough of ! ! !!
I re-read favorite books even though I can remember the ending. I have read all of Jan Karon’s books multiple times, and I love them. Father Tim is fabulous.
I read my Rex Stout books over and over. He, Dick Francis and Agatha Christie. I have all of the books and short stories of the first two and many of the third. Sometimes I remember the ending, sometimes not. I just like being in the world they create and reveling in the good writing. A never-ending resource.
I always enjoyed history and watched the history channel often. A book stays the same, but many of the media played on the History Channel is re edited over and over. Rewriting history has always been a way to change policy(for the common good – sarcasm here)
A Plugger is not retired and reading books. “Pluggers chronicles the hardworking people the world depends on. They represent the 80 percent of humanity who unceremoniously keep plugging along — balancing work, play and family life.”

And some of the books are just as good the second time around.

Agreed, but for me they are the stories about Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson, created by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.

I enjoy reading the same Pluggers, about forgetting how a book ends, multiple times.

Rereading’s not bad but I keep getting bouts of premature foreshadowing.
