“we are young / heartache to heartache we stand / no promises no demands”

[larryhammer]

In lieu of an actual Reading Wednesday post. Because I was curious, I started listing books I have reread more than once in the last decade:

Protector of the Small (4 volumes), Tamora Pierce
Circle of Magic (4 volumes), Tamora Pierce
The Circle Opens (4 volumes), Tamora Pierce
The Blue Castle, L.M. Montgomery
Busman’s Honeymoon, Dorothy Sayers
Helm, Steven Gould
Blind Waves, Steven Gould
Wildside, Steven Gould
Finder, Emma Bull
Komarr, Lois McMaster Bujold
A Civil Campaign (second half), Lois McMaster Bujold
For the Time Being, W.H. Auden

(Not counted: anything read to Eaglet, anything mine.) Turns out to be more than I initially expected, given how much my life has changed the past ten years. Also surprising: complete lack of Le Guin or Ovid.

I seem to have a soft spot for books that claim inspiration by Busman’s Honeymoon. Any recs for more?
