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.
You’re exactly right that your emotions will never be the same. If they were, re-reading wouldn’t be worth it. You’ll pick up more details in character and plot development, foreshadowing, writing technique, and over-arching themes in more nuance than the first time you read. Reading a book once lets you know the whole plot, but re-reading at least two or three times is the only way to actually understand the book.
