Given the overtly religious nature of this website/blog, you won’t be surprised to learn that I do read thought the Bible pretty much every year. However, there are some other books that I actually found myself reading twice, thrice or even more.
Since the writing prompt makes an assumption that there will be one specific book, I’m going to say The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien. I don’t remember if I read it before or after The Lord of the Rings trilogy. I was very young the first time I read anything by Tolkien but I do remember being surprised and delighted to discover there was more Middle Earth lore.
For a number of years, while I was still in school, I read The Hobbit every year during our summer vacation. This is part of a habit I had settled into when I was about twelve years old. I was reading fantasy novels in the summer months and science fiction in the winter.
And now, thanks to this writing prompt, I think I will read both The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings this summer.
