This week’s topic is a freebie, so I’m looking back at books I’ve read, and either I read them long enough ago that I only have a vague recollection of them that I’d like to update, or I loved them so much I want to experience them again (or, possibly, both). Others I want to re-read alongside a sequel or a supplementary piece of work. Here are my top picks at the moment:
The House of the Spirits by Isabel Allende
The Fire Next Time by James Baldwin
Wuthering Heights by Emily Brontë
A Prayer for Owen Meany by John Irving
The Secret Diary of Adrian Mole Aged 13 3/4 by Sue Townsend
The Lie of the Land by Amanda Craig
There There by Tommy Orange
That’s it for me this week! Are any of your favourite books in this list? Are there any books that you loved and would really like to re-read? Why?
Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly link-up feature created by The Broke and the Bookish and hosted by Jana at That Artsy Reader Girl. Every week TTT has a different topic, and everyone who links up has to create a link of ten items that fit that topic. To see past and upcoming topics, go here.
I don’t often tend to reread books, but I wouldn’t mind seeing Ove again.

Me too! I’ve been watching the film as my comfort watch over the past few months, and it has me wanting to re-visit the book as well!
Fire Next Time, Anne Frank, Wuthering Heights and Ove! Good luck
I’ve started The Fire Next Time, and so far it’s as good as I remembered! Thanks!
