I'm having a hard time putting Planiverse down.

Does anyone else here have a book that they read over and over?

I read Bulhakov's "Master and Margaret" at least once in two months, often return to Pratchett (hard to catch all puns at once, so I find myself groaning with laughter at a hitherto unsuspected one) and go through my Sandman collection from time to time. Well, I reread most of my books anyway.

Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy and Long, Dark Tea-Time of the Soul.

Also Sex, Ecology, and Spirituality but that's because I can't yt fathom it.

"Planiverse" would be one of them. I've also read books by Joe Queenan and George Carlin over and over a few times. And some graphic novels. And I'm imagining Neil Gaiman's "American Gods" will be too after a couple of years.

I thought George Carlin only wrote "Brain Droppings".

There's also "Napalm and Silly Putty", which came out Spring of last year

I've got a few that I cycle through.

Currently in the cycle are:
Starship Titanic
The Andromeda Strain
The Stainless Steel Rat Joins the Circus
The Hobbit
The Lord of the Rings (omnibus)
Airframe (Misplaced somewhere)

I read The Hunt for Red October enough that it literally fell apart. I've also got a fair amount of Crichton's other works. (both Jurassic Park novels, And one other one)

I also read a lot online. I've just finished up with foxcutter's A Fox In the Works, which is quite entertaining.

I also, by way of self editing, read the stuff I've written.
