LasseDK Posted May 28, 2009 Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 Tough to compile a list, have alot of books i like to read again and again. Just from my bedroom bookshelf i can see theese ive read several times: Simon Wiesenthal: A Life in Search of Justice Rogue Warrior of the SAS: The Blair Mayne Legend Sun Tzu: Art of war Churchill: A Biography But could make a 30+ list in all genres (mostly nonfiction though).

Enchanted Posted May 29, 2009 Report Share Posted May 29, 2009 Here are some books I?ve read more than once (especially that bloody Marketing Management I?ve read more than 3 times and I still don?t get it). Question : What book(s) have you read more than once? Marketing books by Philip Kotler are good ones. I have Principle of Marketing 12th edition, randomly reading never finished a chapter. My attention jumps around from one to another chapters. I like the book layout and the examples of products, corporates and case studies, term definitions provided on the left side of the book, diagrams enbling better understanding. I read a lot online but I'm hardly a book reader. The only book I read more than once and obviously it's a textbook "Strategic Management and Business Policy" by Thomas L. Weelen and J. David Hunger. We had quiz in every class and mid-term exam and final exam. And it was my top achievement during those days When I read, I opt for non-fiction books I like facts.

Bushi Posted May 29, 2009 Report Share Posted May 29, 2009 The Broken Sword by Poul Anderson. Never bored to read it again. Lord of the Rings by J.R.R Tolkien. Never tired to read this as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neo Posted May 29, 2009 Report Share Posted May 29, 2009 I seldom read books twice, usually have a pile of new books waiting to be read. But recently I was bookless at Samed and so I re-read "Little Angels: Real Life Stories of Thai Novice Monks" - highly recommended. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
