BOOKS WRITTEN OVER TEN YEARS AGO THAT I STILL LOVE

---

When it comes to books and more specifically the books written ten years ago (or more), I have conflicting feelings. On the one hand, some of them I have super fond memories of and to this day, love. On the other, I have this odd feeling that maybe, no matter my fond memories, I don’t ever want to re-read them lest that memory tarnish. It’s a weird sort of bookworm quirk and yet, here we are.

LIST | LET’S FIND A FEW OF THE MORE HILARIOUS BOOK TITLES I OWN

The not re-reding bit aside, I still like to look at some of the books I’ve read in years past and surmise whether I’d still love them. It’s just more fun this way. That’s what we’re doing today just because and, also, why not? Let’s get started.

BOOKS WRITTEN TEN YEARS AGO (OR MORE!)

---

ROYAL RUNAWAY PRINCES, HESTER BROWNE (2012)

Ok, so this one is cheating since it was barely written ten years ago. However, this is one book that seems to be one I could re-read and I’d still thoroughly enjoy it. Goodreads

NOW AND ALWAYS, LORI COPELAND (2008)

I, sadly, cannot remember much about this one, but I seem to recall thinking it was a charming and entertaining read. Plus I know I did used to quite enjoy Lori’s novels, including Roses Will Bloom Again. Goodreads

ROSES WILL BLOOM AGAIN, LORI COPELAND (2002)

I cannot remember details about this title either, much like Now and Always, but I do know I enjoy some of Lori’s books and really, someday I wouldn’t mind re-reading some of them. Goodreads

DEE HENDERSON NOVELS (2005)

I adored, when I read them, Dee’s O’Malley and Uncommon Heroes series. Both are so dang good, especially if you like mysterious but not too dark stories. Goodreads

TO CATCH A THIEF (SERIES), JILL ELIZABETH NELSON (2006)

These books were, at the time I read them, some of my most favorite. They’re caper style stories each of the three books following the same stories. Kind of ABC Castle in some sense pre-Castle days. Goodreads

ANNA AND THE FRENCH KISS, STEPHANIE PERKINS (2010)

This one was just a simple, easy and fun read for me. I have such fond memories. Goodreads

THE GUERNSEY LITERARY AND POTATO PEEL PIE SOCIETY, MARY ANN SCHAFFER & ANNIE BARROWS (2008)

I mean, it’s just charming in ways I didn’t expect. Such a darling and meaningful historical read. Goodreads

THE CHOICE, NICHOLAS SPARKS (2007)

Remember loving this when I read it and I have this instinct I still would. Goodreads

TEAM HOPE (SERIES), SUSAN MAY WARREN (2005)

Read these YEARS ago and while I don’t remember details or specifics, seems like I did enjoy them. They’re kind of adventure stories and Susan can, honestly, write in any genre (mystery, contemporary, historical) and she does it WELL. Goodreads

THE PRINCESS, LORI WICK (1999)

Though the link for this may list the publication as 2019, it’s actually 1999. They re-released it which is the edition I linked to. This is one of those nostalgic reads I really would like to give another re-read because I have this memory of loving this. Could just be that teenage me loved the royal tropes though. Goodreads

How do you feel about re-reading a novel you adored? Do you? Has it been a good result? What books do you still love written ten+ years ago? Would you read any of these, or have you? Comment all the comments. Let’s chat.

Thank you for being here! Super grateful and plan to try to work to be better about visiting your lists and webspaces sooner than the following week. But just know, I’m grateful you’re here.
