A new Top Five Tuesday, the prompts are created by Bionic Book Worm. I love rereading books, whether it’s one of my favourites or just a story that I’ve forgotten the plot to! These are my next/top rereads:
1. A Song of Ice and Fire by George R.R. Martin
ASOIAF has a lot to take in, every time I read them I connect something else in the story or see things from a different point of view. I could reread these books forever. Because of how they’re written, every chapter we’re with a different character in a different part of their mad world so it’s always interesting. I can’t get enough of this series so I’ll be rereading them forever!
2. Life After Life by Kate Atkinson
This book is so incredible but I’ve only read it once so I can’t wait to enjoy it all over again. This is kind of my dream book, it’s set in the 1920’s-40’s and it all about the possibilities of life and the decisions we make affecting our lives.
3. Atonement by Ian McEwan
I haven’t read this book in so long and it’s one of my favourites. The film is also one of my favourites. I clearly have a thing about WWII Britain.
4. The Hunger Games series by Suzanne Collins
I haven’t read these books since the last film came out, it’s definitely time I reread them again. This is another series that I will always come back to because of the emotional connection I have to it and how brilliant it is!
5. His Dark Materials by Phillip Pullman
I loved this series when I was younger and Pullman has written a book that’s set twenty years after the events in the last book, it’s out later this year. I am so excited and I thought I’d better read the series again just to remind myself of all the details! The series is aimed at children but it’s so complex and clever that I think any age would enjoy it.
Harry Potter should really be on the list as it’s another series that I will never not want to read but I only read them all last year so they’ll have to wait!
Oh yes the Hunger Games!!!

ASOIAF! When the release date is confirmed for the next book I’m planning on reading it all again to prep! His Dark Materials is great, a rewarding read at any age. Would love to hear what you think of The Book of Dust Book 1 when you get to it.

I’ll definitely have to read them again before The Winds of Winter comes, whenever that may be!

Whenever GRRM is ready, and the furore around the end of the TV series has died down a bit maybe. Who knows. I’m here for it 🙂

I definitely need to reread ASOIAF- there’s so much too it and I keep forgetting a lot of it. I loved his dark materials and hunger games as well- both of those are long overdue a reread for me too 😉 Awesome list!
