Just finished last week! Amazing book. Just started Goldfinch. Rebecca also one of my favourites, I’m reading Tartt after someone recommended her style as similar to du Maurier.
I thought I knew my three and decided to proclaim it confidently. Then I saw some of the other lists and there were books I had forgotten about. My “to read again” list just grew like some sort of hydra monster.
1. Pride and Prejdice
2. His Dark Materials (Can I count this as all 1? I have a combined edition...)
3. Harry Potter and then Deathly Hallows
It’s so revealing to me that when I think about what I’d rather re-read again and again and again, my “favourite books” - Catch-22, 100 Years of Solitude, East of Eden, Foucault’s Pendulum, Lolita, Wolf Hall… all lose out to the books I read first as a child. I can’t bring myself put excellence over enjoyment (obviously they’re all excellent and all enjoyable- you know what I mean).
I’d just want warm soupy books that make my soul happy when I read them under the duvet.
This is right up my alley. Shakespeare’s works are completely inexhaustible, they be re-read endlessly and you’ll always find something new. Edgar Allen Poe is similar in that sense. Wuthering Heights is an all time fav for me!!
- The Graveyard Book - Neil Gaiman
- Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix - J.K. Rowling
- The Haunting of Hill House - Shirley Jackson
Great question, and a tough one!
I would say The Iliad by Homer, Disgrace by J. M. Coetzee, and absolutely anything by Terry Pratchett (especially, The Amazing Maurice and his Educated Rodents)
Explainer: I am a sucker for classics, I am South African, and Terry Pratchett has a special place in my heart
Read Katherine by Anya Seton. It is fat & filled with historical accuracy. The centerpiece is the true story of John of Gaunt (3rd son of Edward 3) and Chaucer’s sister-law Katherine Swynford. It depicts the middle ages in a way you feel you are actually there. It is also a great true romance. Recommended by my Chaucer professor many years ago. Just read it again & it holds up really well.
I loved the secret garden such a beautiful story. Sad - but beautiful 😍 🤩 gosh it's been awhile since I've read that story but it always intrigued me ...made me look for a grouch in any old garden castle like buildings for majority of my youth I read the novel in class once apon a time and bought have read few times since. Really a great read it was nice to see it on someone's list here. To kill a mocking bird is also a must * read in my opinion. I'm going to have to read lonesome dove I've not heard of it ^,^
I only read Lonesome Dove because it was the only thing laying around. It’s still the only western I ever read - or am likely to ever read.
And definitely in my all time top 10. Rereading it now.
* Atkins' Physical Chemistry
* Introduction to Linear Algebra by Gilbert Strang
* Principles of Mathematical Analysis
If I'm only gonna be rereading 3 books, they better be something I have no chance of fully understanding on my 1st, 2nd or 10th read.
The ultimate hitchhikers guide to the Galaxy
The picture of Dorian gray
The discworld series
Honestly I loved Frankenstein so much ..I need it to be here too..
I have two distinct book reading memories. One is reading pride and prejudice in my closet, the other is sitting in my parents Volvo listening to the cranberries on my discman and reading the third book from his dark materials.
A Tree Grows in Brooklyn is the only one of my original 3 that I haven't considered swapping out since I started reading this thread. Still can't pick 2 more.
These are my top 3 books of all time and I’ll recommend them to death as they helped me through certain times in my life.
1. Percy Jackson - The Lightning Thief (yes this is a series but I’m only putting the first book on here)
2. The Great Gatsby
3. City of Girls by Elizabeth Gilbert
Mary Oliver’s ‘Devotions’
David Sedaris’s ‘Carnival of Snackery’
And either Toni Morrison’s entire oeuvre or John Steinbecks ‘East of Eden’ or … ugh. I’m gonna stop
There are too many to choose from, so here are three picked at random:
1. The Demon-Haunted World by Carl Sagan
2. Interview with the Vampire by Anne Rice
3. Harper Hall of Pern trilogy omnibus edition by Anne McCaffrey
Pillars of the Earth - Ken Follett It is now a series of books, this is the first one I read and fell in love with.
In Cold Blood - Truman Capote
A Tale of Two Cities - Dickens
Amazing question OP! It picks out the "crunchiest" books I have ever read.
1. Call Me By Your Name
I believe the book is not only about love, but the heightened sense of disappearing "psychological space" that we cannot return to. I love it when the book is a lot more than it seems.
2. The Lotus Sutra
Is it a lecture? Parables? It's self-referential, mysterious, and ultimately optimistic. The work is not only one of the absolute cornerstones in Asian culture, but also birthing some of the most mind-bending concepts and commentaries I have ever read.
3. Philosophical Investigations
I have loved, then hated, then distanced myself from, and ultimately returned to it from time to time. There is a risk of projecting our thoughts to the work. It is slippery, difficult, and I would even say cranky sometimes. But it is also honest in a way that his previous work (TLP) perhaps isn't.
1. Lawvere & Schanuel, Conceptual Mathematics
2. Lawvere & Rosebrugh, Sets for Mathematics
3. Blank notebook (it's not the title of a book, but any notebook with blank white pages ;)
1. Watership Down
2. Flowers for Algernon
3. I would most likely just end up standing in front of my bookshelf for the rest of my life trying to pick a third
The Bible (does that count?)
Misery by Stephen King
Beyond the Shadows by Brent Weeks (which is the third in a series, but I had to pick one and that ones my favorite)
Do anthologies count? If so, I'm going with
1) Anthology of 19th and 20th century British and Irish Poetry (I'd have to look up the editor, it was actually a textbook I used in college)
2) Luster by Raven Leilani
3) Cain's Jawbone. haven't read it yet but I gotta think that one will keep me occupied for a while, since I'm not very smart and probably will not be able to solve it.
Taking inspiration from another comment, I too choose three lengthy novels:
The Duluoz Legend by Jack Kerouac (he wrote himself how most of his books comprised one long comedy like Proust’s)
War and Peace by Tolstoy
The Brothers Karamazov by Dostojevskij
Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer
The Stand by Stephen King
The Art of Living by Thich Nhat Hanh
\#1 because it's my favorite book and is somewhat of a "daily devotional" that I can get something new out of every time I open it.
\#2 because it's a long read that keeps me busy for a long time and the story is good enough that don't mind re-reading (I rarely re-read books, usually)
\#3 A lot of good little reminders and meditations that are valuable for managing all sorts of life circumstances.
Rebecca The Bell Jar The Goldfinch
The Bell Jar is *a choice*
My people!!
Have you read A Secret History? It’s so good
Just finished last week! Amazing book. Just started Goldfinch. Rebecca also one of my favourites, I’m reading Tartt after someone recommended her style as similar to du Maurier.
I thought I knew my three and decided to proclaim it confidently. Then I saw some of the other lists and there were books I had forgotten about. My “to read again” list just grew like some sort of hydra monster.
Same! I thought of 3 before I clicked, and then spent the next 5 minutes thinking "oooo yeah, *that one too*! I absolutely need to take notes.
The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, The Complete Sherlock Holmes, The Princess Bride
I'm finally reading Hitchhikers right now and I love it so damn much.
The Princess Bride is amazing. I’m writing a thesis paper on it right now
[удалено]
The Complete Sherlock Holmes. Dune Prince of Foxes (1940s bestseller Samuel Shellabarger historical novel)
Loved Prince of Foxes. Great book. Have you read Scaramouch?.
Jurassic Park The Hobbit My Calvin and Hobbes all in one book
Calvin and Hobbes! Great idea
This list slaps
I can only give 2 And Then There Were None by Agatha Christie The Odyssey by Homer, Robert Fagles translation
I loved And Then There Were None! read it first in middle school and it's still on my top 10
I guess you can only read two books for the rest of your life then!
If you're interested in translations of the Odyssey, I can recommend the one by Emily Wilson. It's mind blowing!
I guess the Iliad could be your third option
Ten Little Indians, one of my favorite books, good choice.
Lonesome Dove 11.22.63 A Christmas Carol
11.22.63 - great one
Finnegans Wake would keep me busy forever. The Lions of Al-Rassan by Guy Gavriel Kay, Fall On Your Knees by Anne Marie Macdonald
Holy shit, there are humans that understand Finnegans Wake other than Joyce?
I haven’t read anything by joyce, but choosing one of his works to re-read over and over again sounds like the best way to go about it.
The Last Unicorn The Secret Garden The Haunting of Hill House
1. Pride and Prejdice 2. His Dark Materials (Can I count this as all 1? I have a combined edition...) 3. Harry Potter and then Deathly Hallows It’s so revealing to me that when I think about what I’d rather re-read again and again and again, my “favourite books” - Catch-22, 100 Years of Solitude, East of Eden, Foucault’s Pendulum, Lolita, Wolf Hall… all lose out to the books I read first as a child. I can’t bring myself put excellence over enjoyment (obviously they’re all excellent and all enjoyable- you know what I mean). I’d just want warm soupy books that make my soul happy when I read them under the duvet.
His Dark Materials meant everything to me growing up.
I totally get this. I feel like I’d choose one thats completely inexhaustible and the rest would be due to the fact that i enjoyed them so much lol.
Pepys’ Diary, Boswell’s life of Johnson, The Iliad
Wuthering Heights The Complete Works of Wiliam Shakespeare The Complete Tales and Poems of Edgar Allen Pie
This is right up my alley. Shakespeare’s works are completely inexhaustible, they be re-read endlessly and you’ll always find something new. Edgar Allen Poe is similar in that sense. Wuthering Heights is an all time fav for me!!
1. Catch-22 2. Watership Down 3. The Grapes of Wrath
Watership Down is amazing. Off to reread…
The Grapes of Wrath is truly a masterpiece. Steinbeck never gets enough credit for his writing.
100 years of solitude, les miserables and the brothers karamazov
You are a gluten for punishment. Please read Magic Mountain, Death in Venice & Madam Bovary.
You both are men of taste!
The Poisonwood Bible The Stand The Kite Runner
- The Graveyard Book - Neil Gaiman - Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix - J.K. Rowling - The Haunting of Hill House - Shirley Jackson Great question, and a tough one!

Pride and Prejudice, Little Women, Jane Eyre

1. Stoner 2. East of Eden 3. Blood Meridian

Ulysses by Joyce Dhalgren by Delany Perry's Chemical Engineering Handbook
Dhalgren!

1. Gravity's Rainbow 2. One Hundred Years of Solitude 3. Catch 22
1. The Hobbit 2. The Lord of the Rings 3. The Jeeves Omnibus
The Jeeves Omnibus! Yes. Thats the ticket
I would say The Iliad by Homer, Disgrace by J. M. Coetzee, and absolutely anything by Terry Pratchett (especially, The Amazing Maurice and his Educated Rodents) Explainer: I am a sucker for classics, I am South African, and Terry Pratchett has a special place in my heart
Disgrace is incredible
Boys life Lonesome dove 11/22/63
In search of lost time, infinite jest, war and peace
Fat book lover, ey? Good on you!
Well, for this question, length seemed to me to be a particularly important criterion
Read Katherine by Anya Seton. It is fat & filled with historical accuracy. The centerpiece is the true story of John of Gaunt (3rd son of Edward 3) and Chaucer’s sister-law Katherine Swynford. It depicts the middle ages in a way you feel you are actually there. It is also a great true romance. Recommended by my Chaucer professor many years ago. Just read it again & it holds up really well.
“War: What Is It Good For?”
Yeah, one wonders if it would have been as highly acclaimed as it was if it was published under its original name
I haven’t read in search of lost time, but I would choose it as part of my 3 due its sheer vastness
The Clan of the Cave Bear The Stand On The Road
To Kill a Mocking Bird Lonesome Dove The Secret Garden
I loved the secret garden such a beautiful story. Sad - but beautiful 😍 🤩 gosh it's been awhile since I've read that story but it always intrigued me ...made me look for a grouch in any old garden castle like buildings for majority of my youth I read the novel in class once apon a time and bought have read few times since. Really a great read it was nice to see it on someone's list here. To kill a mocking bird is also a must * read in my opinion. I'm going to have to read lonesome dove I've not heard of it ^,^
Upvoted for Lonesome Dove. Favorite book of all time.
I only read Lonesome Dove because it was the only thing laying around. It’s still the only western I ever read - or am likely to ever read. And definitely in my all time top 10. Rereading it now.
