I've read all Margaret Drabble's books many times over. She writes so well that even on a second reading you discover another side of the plot or a depth that you missed before. I can usually tell on the first page whether I've read a book before and get annoyed when I have bought it for a second time on amazon and not been able to open the book. Now you can even on line, but not always.
I make a list of authors before I go to England on a visit and write the date of the author's last book I read. But now flying is restricted to one suitcase and cabin luggage and I can't buy books anymore at the airport.
When we go by car I take lot with me for the charity shop. I no longer keep a book which I know I won't read again. I maybe down-sizing soon.
I've got another 'keen'... Ouch!
