Message: [QUOTE="BlueDolphin, post: 3532533, member: 1274"] Lots, but a few I think worth noting: Huckleberry Finn - I reread it every decade or so. Almost 80, so time for my 6th or 7th reread. Still my favorite book. Treasure Island - When I was a boy I was told all boys read it, so I read it 2 or 3 times. Reread it a few years ago because I wanted to see what it was like for an adult. Still great! Mont St. Michel & Chartres - Read it in college for a course on the Middle Ages. During a week-long program at Chartres Cathedral some years ago I reread the Chartres part while sitting in the cathedral or on a bench right in front of the building. The following year on a trip to France wife and I took a day trip to St. Michel and I reread the St. Michel part. Old Man & the Sea - Santiago might be my favorite character in all literature. To Kill a Mockingbird - I meant to reread it for the 2nd or 3rd time on its 50th anniversary but didn't get to it. Gotta do it this year. It was such a formative experience for me in the 60's. Read it around the time of the Selma - Montgomery March (which I participated in). Scout might be my 2nd favorite character. [/QUOTE]
