Thanks for all your support!
Agreed, re-reading a book is like eating comfort food or re-watching your favourite movies/tv shows ^_^ I also love getting the audiobook so I can re-read (in audio form) while doing other things.
Captured in Words you’d love the Brereadathon if you love rereading so much:)
I'll check it out, thanks! :)
I *completely* agree.
Edit: I adore rereading because I love coming back to a world I enjoyed... this is especially true for the Harry Potter series👌
I definitely agree with you!!!!!!!!
YES
Yes!
YESS
InternetHobo check out the Brereadathon, then!! It’s all about rereading!!
I think 'because I want to' is more than reason enough. Quite impressed you filled it out to over 4 mins of good content.
The Book Goblin yes ❤
Yes, that's definitely reason enough. That was really inspiring lol. Thank you for that, and have a nice day 😊
Harry Potter (the whole series) 14 times and counting (and proud)
I defiantly don’t have a problem...
Jessica W lol no Harry Potter is awesome
Ganna emam thank you, not many people understand😂
Jessica W ikr 😂
Same :D I didn't count because I started as a child, but often I re-read the whole series once a year.
HeavenReading yes, Percy Jackson is the best too!!
All I do is re-read stuff it’s a PROBLEM.
My most re-read book is this silly middle grade horror book that I read in 3rd grade and still read every June. It gives me an undeniable sense of summer!
What is it called?
Natsu Dragneel It’s called Wait Till Helen Comes by Mary Downing Hahn! They made a movie of it too a couple years back but I never watched it.
Lotta Niemi
I just read the discription and it sounds pretty interesting. Maybe I will read it. The funny thing is that I have the same surname as the author. XD
Natsu Dragneel Oh really? What a coincidence XD
Lotta Niemi feel good about those rereads!! Embrace them during the Brereadathon:)
THE GLORIOUS BOOKSHELF BACKGROUND IS BACK!
I. RELATE. SO. MUCH. TO. THIS. 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
I re read books so much my tbr is in constant despair lol
Ifrah Ah...same here
Ifrah embrace it!! Celebrate rereading with the Brereadathon!
I reread books because I'm so nostalgic 😂 I want to feel the feelings and read about the characters again
itslisanne haha I do that too! Hence why I created the Brereadathon for rereading books:)
WAS THAT A CHITTY CHITTY BANG BANG REFERENCE?
I'm pretty sure it was a Kung Fu Panda 3 reference. :)
It’s also from a old movie
Instant answer to the question in the title: because they are beautifull and amazing and deserve all the love!!
Britt Loos yesss
I've read the Percy Jackson series 30 times (over a 7 year span). I just love re-reading things because I know I already love them 😂
TheSimmingBibliophile even the HoO series ? Cause i didnt
killer demon ive read HoO about 5 times. But the first 5 main "Percy" ones Ive read 30 times each.
I feel this, rereading is THE BEST
A Clockwork Reader maybe you’ll get to join in the Brereadathon sometime and reread to your heart’s content!!
I love your "new" video style, but I still love the old one! Also, love the "the author comes around, uses their magic and bring's it back to life" Hand gestures ...•-•
I got the best news ever today. I applied for a school and got in!!!
Emily Almond congratulations!!
Ghost Toast Thank you.
Emily Almond congratulations well done
Congratulations! :)
Shahida Begum Thank you so much!!
OMG Ransom Riggs just tweeted the new cover and title in the peculiar children series its called A MAP of DAYS its going to be out on October 2nd
Rereading a book is one of the best things in the world 💕
gaby rivas you’d love the Brereadathon then’n
I’ve just started reading miss peregrine’s home for peculiar children because of you, and I am LOVING it
Every time I re-read a book I imagine it definitely witch I enjoy doing that
YAAAAS! So agree. Specially because when I first read a book Im so focused on whats going to happen next, so I just rush through. It's good to stop and smell the roses, metaphorically. The characters flesh out, you enjoy scenes more. And it seems ultimately more satisfying than before.
I live in Greece, I mean I've always lived in Greece but any way, so my supply of English books is pretty limited and almost ALL of my reading is rereading😂😂 It's actually quite nice to do and even though I was kind of forced to do this I'm really glad I do it because I get to build a stronger relationship with each book and for example if I'm going to reread PJO for the millionth time I know what to expect, who to expect and I generally find comfort in the familiarity of it.
Your videos are amazing btw💛💙💛💙💛💙💛
Also, I KILL AT BOOK TRIVIA
there are books that's right book-S that I have read over five times😂😂
Another Greek here?😏😂
Georgia Madridista Yeah!
Dana Kopsida whoa...do you guys not have a lot of bookstores in Greece??!? If so, I had no idea. I mean, I guess it's not just one of those things you'd think about. Idk
Jenna Campbell We have bookstores. Things aren't THAT bad here😂😂 It's just hard to get english books and reading translated books isn't as nice as reading them in english
Dana Kopsida Ahhhhhh ok. I was starting to freak out there for a second.
YES TO EVERYTHING IN THIS VIDEOThis year has been the year of rereading for me, and it's honestly been so fun. I just wrote a review where I specifically used the words "comfort book" because that is exactly what rereading is for me so much of the time
I'll probably read Tuck Everlasting every August for the rest of my life. ❤️ But I do have a long TBR list so I try not to re-read too often, at least for now.
I LOVE REREADING THE SHADOWHUNTER CHRONICLES 💜💜💜
I love rereading books! I recently reread the Infernal Device trilogy. But it’s great because it brought me so much comfort while I was studying in Italy during the time when I was homesick.
I never used to reread books. I also didn’t used to keep a ton of books either. But, I got to a point where I was keeping more books than I was getting rid of because I had really liked the book(s), so I just have this shelf filled with favorites and unread books. And while I still don’t keep books I didn’t love (I just don’t have space so if it’s not a 4-5 Star book it doesn’t stay) I just had tons of already read books just sitting around. So I actually decided this year that I’m going to reread a book for every 4 new books I read, which is working out well. And I’m finding that rereading my favorites is so comforting and nostalgic.
THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO!! I’m an obsessive rereader(which causes problems for my tbr😅) but I never know how to explain why I just love rereading so much! All of my friends say things like “but you already know what’s going to happen?? Won’t you just be bored?” But the thing is, I read bc I love the story and the characters, not because of the surprises. I’m so glad to finally see another human who shares my love of rereading because as of right now none of my reader friends share it
I love re-reading my favorite books to cheer myself up!
I LOVEEE re reading!! It’s so much fun to go back to my favorite books and just feel really happy 😂
This is soooooo true!!!!! Also you are so freaking hilarious!!!!!!!
I LOVE rereading books 😍 this year alone i already reread 3 books and i‘m loving it!
I guess I have reread all the books that I own, and most of the books on my phone innumerable times so I get where you're coming from! I absolutely love rereading books!
I love re-reading my favourite books! I love spending time in my favourite worlds with my favourite characters again. experiencing all those adventures again. also I always find new clues :)
I've always rewatched series and i guess you are right rereading books takes even less time. I'm currently rereading my first book(six of crows) and i get to see all the plotting that i just didnt pick up on the first time around!!! Im actually listening to it and having both experiences just enhances the world for me
I think i´ve reread the Kingkiller chronicles 5 times in two years and every single time i find new trivia and also clues for the next book. This series is definitely my comfort book.
I just discovered this channel yesterday, and I love it so much! Rereading a book is the best feeling! I love that you included that you pick up on facts that you missed the first go around, because that is me every time, especially because I read complex series that have so many layers of meanings.
I've reread the hps ten times not even kidding!! I love when you're rereading a book and you find little Easter eggs that are SO important to the plot that meant nothing earlier!
I'm a huge rereader! Definitely do it for comfort, it's like coming home to old friends. And if it was a book that could make me laugh several times while in the course of reading, then I'm doubly sure to reread it again.
I have such a HUGE TBR pile I don't reread often.
My book reading friend doesn't understand why I love re-reading books. I relate so much. Thank you Jesse for this video!
I love spotting things I didn't see before when I re-read!
I totally agree! I’ve read The Raven Cycle three times now, and every time, it’s improved my mood. Not only that, but with every read, I learn new things about the story or the writing or the characters. It’s a wonderful thing to reread books.
Rereading books is the best. I love picking up on all the little clues I missed the first time or the second time...
Can I just say THANK YOU for making this video....lately I've been thinking about rereading a certain book series.....and now I will!! :-)
I can re-read John Green's works over and over but still cry EVERYTIME! I love his books ❤
I've been doing a lot of re-reading lately and I'm loving it so much. I'm re-reading the Heroes of Olympus series by Rick Riordan and I didn't realise I forgot so much about the characters and the plot.
I’m glad rereading is being represented better these days!! You should do the Brereadathon coming up!!
I read my favorite series 3 times in the last 2 years :D And i'm planning to reread it every year from now on! Because it keeps getting better every time i read the books.
I love re-reading it's like your experiencing the story all over again but now you know what's going to happen so you tend to look at the small details that you mist the last time you read it
I love this set up so much
Just found your channel so glad I did!!!
Same, found his channel two days ago ~Raven
I'm currently re-reading a book from my freaking childhood! Childhood, guys! But to be fair, I also do it to practice my translation skills. But still... A childhood book and I'm enjoying it just as much.
AH I AGREE WITH SO MUCH ABOUT THIS VIDEO THAT I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHERE TO START!!! Though, I will say that noticing foreshadowey type stuff in books/tv shows/movies is one of my fav things cuz then I'm like AH THAT THERE IT IS HOW DID I NOT SEE THAT BEFORE?!?!! and it's fun and great and stuff. And while I'm super behind on reading and stuff, I feel like maybe rereading books can get you out of reading slumps, cuz then you're actually reading and rereading a fav can pull you out maybe? idk but it makes sense to me.
I love rereading books because you can catch things that you never saw before and I mostly reread books that make me nostalgic, so it always brings me happiness when I reread them😊
I love to re-read books, it can also help me get out of a book slum. My favorite thing is getting a reminder of something small that I loved in the book that I forgot about.
I've re-read some of my favourite books 6 times. I think that the most value this has is what Jesse mentioned about it opening your eyes to what you've missed in the excitement of your first read.
I love re-reading books because it is like visiting friends that you feel like you've known for ever, and they don't care if you are sick or are failing (or not doing well in) your classes, or whatever the case in your real life. They welcome you back (home, sometimes) with open arms.
I have re-read Miss Peregrines home for Peculair children so many times I got some of my friends to read the series. When I found out Map of Days was coming out I had friends the get excited about.
I love to reread old favorites but haven't been able to lately because my unread books far outweighs my read books. It is very comforting sometimes to pick up a book that you've read and dive back into that world. The only book that I've reread more than twice that I can remember is Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. I read it first when it came out, then had plans to reread the first half before the first part of the movie and second half for the second half of the movie... well that didn't happen. It wasn't my favorite book and many of the deaths were heartbreaking but once I fell into that world again, I couldn't drag myself out until the last page. One of these days I hope to go back and revisit favorites especially if I haven't read them in a while as it will almost seem like I'm reading it for the first time!
I’ve found this really helpful when im in a reading slump.
This is my first time watching one of your videos and you’re amazing! Love this topic. I have to re-read especially when a new book in a series comes out because I have a terrible memory. And honestly all i can remember is that I liked the last book lol.
Anyone else love the cute little dance Jesse does at the end of each video? It makes my day every time!
I'm chronically ill and when I'm having a bad day or week or month, if my illness is in a flare and I'm miserable, rereading a book is like having a conversation with a good friend you've not talked to for a while. It's so comforting. It's like going home. When I had pneumonia, I was too tired and weak to even read! I got The Chronicles of Narnia on audiobook and listened to it just staring at the ceiling. It helped me get through some really hard weeks. I was either having trouble breathing and that was scary, or I was sleepy or queasy from my medicine, and having that something familiar and comforting to lean on was endlessly helpful for me. I went through a phase where about three days a week I was having migraines, and I'd have to basically be in the dark and quiet for days on end. My mom would bring me a plate of food after turning the hall light off and I'd eat in my room, in darkness. I'd wake up and spend the time and go to sleep in darkness and in pain. The one thing I could do was listen to music or audiobooks. Being able to revisit places I loved in my mind while I was stuck in the same four dark walls was the only kind of escape possible to me. It helped me get through those times. Now, my migraines are mostly managed. Only maybe three days a month in darkness, and that's such a blessing to me! I am not going to gripe that I still have them, because they're manageable and that's all I ask! I'm still chronically ill and still in a lot of pain, dealing with iron deficiency anemia as well, so I'm not well by any means, but time has allowed me to figure out what my weapons are and how to use them to fight back and have a life of my own. Things like this, to increase my comfort level and quality of life, are key. And this channel! Being able to watch on bad days (like today) can help make me smile despite the pain and fatigue, keep things in perspective. I'm waiting for a few books from Amazon to be delivered (I got a whole series in HARDBACK for $14.99 in very good condition, so I cannot WAIT!! When will they invent teleporting already!?) so at least in the interim I can bing Jesse's videos!
Chronically Curious so true! I’d bet you’d love joining the Brereadathon!!
As a person who forgets plots too soon, I love re-reading too! Contrary to what people think, re-reading could still be exciting because it gives you a chance to see all the little details that you've missed the first time you read a book(like you said). But it could also be scary because sometimes you re-read a book you haven't read in soooo long and you end up hating or not liking it as much as the first time
I wish I would reread books more often, but there are so many new books out there! The books I reread a lot are the little Prince and one hundred years of solitude
sergio vela The Brereadathon is there for you!! You can set aside a little bit of time for rereading, feel good about it, and then go back to new books after the readathon is over. Win-win!
I rarely re-read, probably because there’s always mountains of new books I want to read and don’t give myself the chance. I’m hoping to eventually re-read some older series I loved when I was younger as I never got to the last one for the exact reason Jesse described re late additions to the series!
I love rereading! But in college I knew some people who never reread on principle. Like, they refused to. Others only reread if it had been long enough for them to forget the plot (which I don't understand that either; I don't forget the plot).
Personally, I love seeing things I missed the first time! It's awesome. Rereading is like going to visit an old friend.
I missed this background 💗💗💗 you are such a great book tuber
your videos are so refreshing
I love re reading books because at the first time I am very very much interested in the story line and the plots and stuff... but when I read them the second time I analyse the situations more nicely and also ... at the second time ... I get to form a better image of the characters in my mind and to analyse the characters ....
and definitely to relive the beautiful world ....
( harry potter series ) ❤
I used to reread my favourite books on loop all the time but since I've fallen into the booktube rabbit hole I rarely reread things because of the big TBR and shiny new books!! But I really wanna reread some of the books I've read in that time x it's tough to get that balance right! X
I love rereading books because I always notice something new! Sometimes it’s good and sometimes it’s bad but ya know
When I consume a piece of art for the first time, may it be a book, movie, tv, I inherently tend to focus on the plot more. But when I come back to them later, I recognize the characterization and emotional subtleties more. It makes me feel more connected to that piece of work.
It makes sense, I plan on trying to read again books I Dnfed before for this reason.
I am rereading all the Percy Jackson book series, and rereading other books too because I was in a long bookslump. So that helps my mindset going in the direction I want it to go. This video got me excited to relate lol 👍
i’ve never reread a whole book but i have reread certain pages i like a lot, for some reason it has never appealed to me to reread a book but u totally just changed my mind and i will definitely try it!
Yes, the bad mood!
I literally was reading Dracula when going through a stressful time and didn't finish it (even though I was close) because I wanted something lighter. Yah. I guess I need to both reread it and finish it!
I really enjoy rereading books because I notice things I didn't notice the first time around. There is actually one book that I have read about fifteen or more times (Little Women) and every time I reread it I realized something I hadn't before. This is not the only case of rereading, I reread series and most of the books I like.
I love releasing because then I can catch points or hidden foreshadowing I missed. It’s like a mystery and it’s high key fun cuz then when I find those hidden points or hints it’s like a light goes off and I literally go like; “OOOOOOOHHHHHHH I UNDERSTAND NOOOWW”
Some of my favourite books i have read 3 or 4 or 5 times, simply because I love them!
Dang Jesse! You hit all the perfect points! Love this video! ^_^
I love rereading books because every time I reread a book I find something new that I hadn’t noticed before, like foreshadowing or some funny line I had forgotten the first time through.
I recently reread Illuminae and I loved it as much as the first time I read it if not even more!
So now I'm rereading witch hunter by Virginia Boecker as I finally got second part and I wanted to refresh the story. And oh my. I've missed so many little details that are so important and make story so much better and more intresting💚💚💚💚
I RELATE SO MUCH! It's my birthday today and I am buying more books but I also want to reread the ones I've read plus my TBR is too long and THERE JUST ISN'T TIME
I've been re reading a lot lately and so my tbr pile is such a mess.
Erika Bryn The Brereadathon is all about rereading, maybe you’d like it!
I first read the ACOTAR series in January 2018 and I can proudly say that I've re-read ACOMAF about 4 times since.
Its May 2018 rn
I love re-read books
I love rereading books!
I just started rereading recently. I knew it would be something I'd love since I can watch the same movies 5000000 times and never bored of them. In December, I started rereading Harry Potter, almost exactly two years after I read the series the first time and it just got me on a kick of rereading, which has been SO MUCH FUN. There was one book I enjoyed considerably less, but for the most part, I've been liking them more. I have books that I'm specifically excited to reread just to see what else I'll see in them. Now rereading is one of my favorite things.
Whimsical Hufflepuff you should check out the Brereadathon!!
OMG, love re-reading books!
Urška Schäffer then you should join the Brereadathon:)
What's that?
Urška Schäffer it’s a readathon for rereading books:) you can find the details on my channel
ah yes rereading books is one of my favourite things ever!! this year i've really been focussing on allowing myself to reread more instead of restraining myself because i feel like i need to read new/unread books first/instead. about 30% of the books i've read this year have been rereads and it's making me so happy!
also, fun fact, i'll give you the sun is probably my all time fave book, but it didn't get that title until i reread it. the first time i read it, it for some reason didn't leave as big of an impact on me as it did the second time around. (i still loved it when i read it for the first time, but when i read it the second time i was so extremely emotional throughout the entire read and everything had hit home a lot harder for some reason.)
FluffyUnicorn same!! You’d probs my like the Brereadathon, check it out!!
I LOVE READING💜
I love rereading books but sadly i don't have enough time to because there are always so many unread books and the guilt that there are so many books out there in the world i might not get to read if i reread older ones. I just reread Eleanor and park and i fell in love with the story all over again
I started rereading one of my all time favorites, The Screwtape Letters by C.S. Lewis, just yesterday. Some books are so worth reading over and over again (though this is actually only my second time reading The Screwtape Letters, it won't be my last).
I love to reread books and you already named all the reasons for why I do it :)
Projecting real life issues onto a book happened to me in the infernal devices trilogy. I read the first two while going through an awful time at uni and hated them! I re-read them later after the 3rd book came out and they ended up becoming one of my favourite series
Re-reading is a great thing. There is this really comedic book for children "Sir Farts-a-lot and the Booger." This book is written for younger readers, and I read it when I was a younger reader. Now, as I am almost sixteen, I still enjoy reading that book. It brings me joy.
I've been rereading Narnia in chronological order and it's like the books knew (yes, I know I sound crazy now) that I was going to need a comfort read because just when I started my favorite one, life sent my stress levels through the roof.
I think you should read the Rebel of the Sands which also has two books after that and is AMAZING!!!!
