Like Liz, Rapaire and others I often read books more than once. In fact, the books I've only read once were usually the ones I didn't like that much..

One that I've re-read several times is "Frozen in Time" by Owen Beattie and John Geiger. I remember buying the book while visiting Edinburg back in 1987, at a time when the book was brand new (even had to get it hardback, as no paperback was as yet available). I started reading the book on the train going down to Harwich on the way home, and I continued reading while on the ferry, finishing it at around 3 in the morning sitting all alone in the corridor outside the cabin so as not to disturb my 3 cabin companions. I simply couldn't put it down.

Others are Betty Tootell's "All four engines have failed" and Piers Paul Read's "Alive". I've re-read all Harry Potter books, but have only read LOTR once (in Danish). I intend to read in again in English sometime, though ;-) I've re-read lots of children's books, like all of the "Little House" series, Anne of Green Gables and books of that ilk. I've read and re-read most of what Simon Wiesenthal ever wrote.

For anybody interested in good historical novels I'll warmly recommend Swedish author Ian Guillou's Crusades Trilogy which has now been translated into English. A Must-Read!!

Quite a mixed bag, as a matter of fact..
