#Read26Indy discussion

So we've been discussing what books lost their magic upon rereading, but what books have never lost it for you as a reader? What's on your shelf that you return to time and again?

I've enjoyed Catcher in the Rye as I've got older because I feel like at times I'm lost in the flow. It makes me think that you find your way eventually.

Cold Mountain, Catch-22, A Confederacy of Dunces, The Poisonwood Bible, The Last Picture Show. Lawrence Booth's Book of Visions, The Neon Vernacular, Bellocq's Ophelia, The Floating Bridge, High Water Mark, Brittle Innings, The Complete Calvin and Hobbes, The Handmaid's Tale, One Hundred Years of Solitude, Watership Down, Money Is Love, The Last Good Kiss, The Shipping News, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, The Tyranny of Dead Ideas, Demon-Haunted World, The Age of American Unreason, Pride and Prejudice, Saving Daylight, Robinson Alone, The Good Lord Bird, The Complete Far Side Gallery, The World Doesn't End.

Skipped Parts by Tim Sandlin and The Longest Cave by Roger Brucker - one fiction and one non fiction, but both very re-readable.

I've enjoyed revisiting several with my teen son-- Don Quixote, The Outsiders,The Great Gatsby, and To Kill a Mockingbird.
Authors I want to visit with regularly -- Dickens, Hemingway, Twain -- from whom I keep finding more and more obscure offerings and modern mash-ups!

To Kill a Mockingbird, Little Women and The Little House on the Prairie series.

To Kill a Mockingbird, The Giver, Homeless Bird, Touching Spirit Bear, Navigating Early

The Sound and the Fury by William Faulkner. I've read it multiple times as I've taught it to several high school classes over the years. Every time, I discover something new within its pages.

Harry Potter series, To Kill a Mockingbird, all Laurie Colwin...
