I’m not really a fan of re-reading books, neither rewatching series or movies, cause I feel like If I rewatch or reread, the same emotions I felt the 1st time I read/ watch it will never be the same. But Back in college, I met my friends now (whom all likes to rewatch/reread stuffs)…

So my question is, how’d you manage to push yourself rereadind a book or rewatching a series? And why is your reason for rereading/rewatching? Just curious.

    I enjoy the characters and the setting. Those things get better with each reading. I guess I see a great book as art, to be appreciated again and again. Over time, the story changes with your stage in life. For example, I used to love Hamlet, the character. Now I can hardly stand him, but enjoy watching Shakespeare dissect him. My response to Steinbeck’s Winter of our Discontent changes so much as I mature that it seems like a completely different book.
