Is Re Reading like comfort food?

 

One of my favourite things to do is 're read books I have loved and I can guarantee that I will 're read a favourite book or the whole series every month. To me 're reading favourites, being in that world again, surrounded by some of my favourite characters is the best thing ever. 


When your feeling sad or down some people eat chocolate and ice cream, some exercise, or do something else for me I 're read my favourites books. Don't get me wrong as I generally 're read every month am not always sad, I just like being in my favourite worlds away from the stresses of daily life. Some may say this isn't healthy to immerse yourselves in another world , that your hiding away from real life but I say to those haters I don't care. I have a job I love, friends and family I love to pieces and in my spare time characters and worlds I love to visit again and again. I will always 're read books again and again for me it's the best thing about reading finding a book you can continually immerse yourself in!


What is your thoughts on 're reads? Yay or Nay? Do you read as comfort let me know in the comments below?

    Rereading is my comfort food too though more often for when I'm feeling tired or stressed or just not feeling well. There's something comforting about familiar characters in a familiar setting doing familiar things!

      I totally agree there's just something that's so relaxing and claming being in familiar bookish settings

    Absolutely! I have a stack of comfort-reads I can always turn to. I have other comfort-media, as well, like whenever I'm really sick, I watch The Princess Bride over and over.

    I completely agree with you on comfort reads! Whenever I am feeling sad, angry, nervous or blah I always pick up specific books which I have declared as "comfort books." Typically these books are romancey in nature as they make me smile and laugh and believe in Happily Ever Afters :) Corny, I know, but that has always been my comfort!
