There a number of books I re-read on a regular basis. Some of these books I read almost yearly but all of them I've re-read at least 5-times.
- Kim by Rudyard Kipling
- The Killer Angels by Michael Shaara
- Cannery Row by John Steinbeck
- Lord of the Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien
- The Razor's Edge by W. Somerset Maugham
- A Moveable Feast by Ernest Hemingway
- A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens. Re-reading this book has become a Christmas Eve tradition.
When I was in high school I used to read Trinity by Leon Uris every year. I think it was my way of trying to connect with my Irish roots. However, I haven't picked up that book in 20-years - so I won't count it. I guess you could also count the Harry Potter books but I've stopped having an obsession with them.
. I've picked the book up several times but around page 100 I just lose interest. No matter how many people tell me how great the book is - I just can't finish it. There are a number of "great" books that fit this description. here are the top 5 masterpieces that I either can't finish or have no interest in starting.
- I seem to pick this book up every year and make it to about page 100
- I re-read 
- I've read just about everything else by Maugham but I can't finish this book
