How many times have you read your favorite story?

[Heradel]

Could have gone elsewhere, but I'm somewhat partial to here for various obvious reasons.

6, 1984.

LOTR at least once through every 2 years.

[Zathras]

Incarnations of Immortality series by Piers Anthony.  About 5 times.  I pick up something different each time, mainly because I'm not the same person when I read them.

I read through most of the Pratchett books just about every year.

(Actually not Rachel this time.)

I think the books I'd label as my favorite, I've read at least four times.  I'm pretty sure I haven't read any of them more than 6 times...

I think I've read Cherryh's Cyteen about four times.  There's other books I've read more, but that one is my favorite.   I still aspire to record an audiobook of it (had to scrap 5 CDs worth of work because it took me that long to realize that I needed a pop filter.)
