There are people who keep on asking me why I keep on re-reading books.
Since I was never good at explaining myself, I just shrugged it off and tell them to fuck off – Ok, that’s rude, and I don’t do that (often), but hey, I don’t know how to explain, I just assumed that I’m simply weird.
So when I came to Amy Letinsky’s website, I came upon this short quote and voila! This is the answer on why I re-read books.
Part of the reason for reading books multiple times is that when you read them at different times in your life, different parts will speak to you.
So yeah, my life is a big chapter of fiction. My imagination is a wild ride in the depths of the deepest sea and there is such a thing as psychic vampires in real life.
So if you’re going to ask me why I have the unusual habit of re-reading books (over and over), this is my answer! J
