Best loved books - reread

This January it’s time to pick up your favourite book and read it again, read a controversial book for a second time a decade later, or reread a book you first read at 16 at 30 or 60 to see if it still has the same impact or has improved on re-reading. Or, consider re-watching that favourite movie or television series, re-playing (again) that game which had you hooked so many years/months/weeks/days ago.
So if you’re hot at the beach, or curled up in front of a fire place during the coldest month of the year – January is the time to reconsider and reflect upon our reading, watching and/or playing.

Here’s a few of our favourite rereads :

Cloudstreet by Tim Winton
The year after by Martin Davies
Truth and The broken shore by Peter Temple
All creatures great and small by James Herriot
In the skin of a lion by Michael Ondaatje
Journey to the stone country by Alex Miller
Northern lights by Philip Pullman
Spirit House by Mark Dapin
The Obernewtyn Chronicles by Isobellle Carmody
and it’s always reread time for Jane Austen

 We have some favourite rewatches too:

Babe
Star wars
Men in black
Grease
Big bang theory
and anything by Jane Austen
