Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish in June of 2010 and was moved to That Artsy Reader Girl in January of 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together.
Welcome back to Tuesday! Today, we're discussing books we'd like to re-read. Before life became so crazy, I used to re-read some books every year. Not sure when that will happen again, but if it did, here are the books I would indulge in.
I waited so long to read the Harry Potter series. Now, I would love the time to read it all over again.
The Greatest Miracle in the World was the first book by Og Mandino that I read. This is the one on my list that I could have the opportunity to re-read because his books are short.
Iced Chiffon by Duffy Brown introduced me to her writing. This is such a great series that I am ready to read it again.
I used to read the Anne of Green Gables series by Lucy Maud Montgomery every year. Would love to read all eight books again.
I loved Sarah Miller's Caroline, which tells the story of Caroline Quiner Ingalls. It is so well-told, I would love to read it again.
Shades of Gray by Jessica James is one of my favorite Civil War novels. I'm overdue to read it again.
The Thorn Birds by Colleen McCullough is another book I used to read once a year. I am long overdue to re-read it.
The Left Behind series is one of my all-time favorites. It's the last series I recall waiting eagerly for the next book to come out. I haven't read it in decades, but I would like to see if I still love it as much as I did back then.
I read the American Bicentennial series by John Jakes in high school. Wonder if I would love it just as much now.
Mrs. Tom Thumb was the first book I read by Melanie Benjamin. Would love to read it again.
Have you read any on my list?

I reread the Anne of Green Gables series a few years ago. It was so good.
I would love to read Caroline some day! My TTT
I remember my parents loving John Jakes and Colleen McCullough. And I didn't know there was a book about Caroline Ingalls, that sounds interesting! I
I enjoyed the Left Behind Series and Anne of Green Gables. I keep thinking I need to reread Anne, but I am worried I won't love it, so I haven't!
I reread the HP books every time a new one was to be released, but stopped after Order of the Phoenix because that book was just so heavy!

The Thorn Birds and the John Jakes books would be fun to read again!
So glad you got a chance to re-read it, Lydia. I tend to skip some of the descriptions when I read them now, but L.M. Montgomery had such a way with words. Thanks for visiting.
It was amazing, MeezCarrie. Hope you read it. Thanks for visiting.
My mother loved both authors, too, curleygeek04. Hope you get to read Caroline. Thanks for visiting.
Cindy, I appreciated Anne of Green Gables more when I was older than as a young person. Hope the same experience for you if you read it again. Thanks for visiting.
I can imagine that it would be tough to keep going as the books increased in size. Thanks for visiting, Pam.
The nice thing about re-reading is you notice new things. Hope you get a chance to read then again, Marg. Thanks for stopping by.
ANNE OF GREEN GABLES is one of my favorite novels of all time. I reread it every few years. The HP books are on my list this week, too. Other than the first book, I've never reread it. I hope you enjoy your rereads!
Happy TTT (on a Wednesday)!
AOGG is such a great book, Susan. Can't believe I couldn't read it when I was younger. Hope you enjoy your Harry Potter reading. Thanks for visiting.
