Top Ten Books I Wish I Could Read Again for the First Time

Welcome to another TTT! This week was originally scheduled to be a non-bookish freebie, but I realized how close it was to the last non-bookish freebie we did. If you’re super on top of it and already wrote your post for this week, post it anyway! If you’d rather do a non-bookish freebie, go for it!

I decided to switch the topic to: Books I Wish I Could Read Again for the First Time. You know those books that are just so fabulous or thrilling or surprising or twisty… or just perfect for you at that moment in your life that you know a re-read would never be the same as the first time? These are the kind of books I’m thinking about today. I will not elaborate on my reasons for choosing these titles because some of them are spoilery, but just know that I don’t think I would enjoy them as much the second time because I’ve either already spoiled them for myself or they are books I read during a different time in my life and I know they would not resonate with me or hit me in the same ways they did when I read them years ago. I have fond memories of them and would love to relive that reading experience, but it’s no longer possible since I’ve either aged out of the target audience or my reading tastes have changed and I probably wouldn’t like them anymore.
