Top Ten Tuesday – Books I’m Worried I Might Not Love as Much the Second Time Around
Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish in June of 2010 and was moved to That Artsy Reader Girl in January 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together. Top Ten Tuesday has been one of my favorite memes ever since I started blogging, so huge thanks to Jana for taking over the hosting duties!
This week’s TTT topic is Books I’m Worried I Might Not Love as Much the Second Time Around. This topic feels very timely to me because although I’m not a big re-reader, the past couple of years I have attempted to go back and re-read a few old favorites. I have mostly abandoned this goal though because almost all of the books I chose to re-read ended up being DNFs the second time around, not because I didn’t still love the book but because since I already knew what was coming, they just didn’t really hit the same and I didn’t want to taint my initial experience with the book. Today I’m sharing some of those as well as a few that I would never even consider re-reading because they were so perfect the first time around.
