Well I don't read books over and over because I have so many books on my TBR pile. But I used to read over and over the Mortal Instruments series by Cassandra Clare and The Outsiders by S.E. Hinton (I've read it like 20 times). I can't wait for City of Glass to come out. I really want to know how the series ends.

Right, now I'm not rereading anything as I'm trying to make a dent in the TBR pile, but I've reread Beauty by Sherri Tepper and Doomsday Book by Connie Willis the most times.

I think I've read Harry Potter books and Sarah Dessen's books and Avalon High by Meg Cabot the most.

I love the Jessica Darling Series. I have the first three but read all of them so far. I CANNOT wait for PERFECT FIFTHS!!!!!!

I haven't read that many books over. I just get bored. A book has to hit me hard the first time and leave a lasting impression. I think I read the first two Harry Potter books twice though because I was going to try to read the series and I'd read the first two around 4 years ago, so I didn't remember anything...

Ahh I see you just edited ;)

Well, Prep is my top favorite book EVER. So yes, I would definitely recommend it. Though be warned it's not for everyone - I know that many people hated it. It just resonated with me, I suppose, the way no other book has. I say, give it a chance and see how it goes! Definitely worth the read.

Andandand, Jessica Darling = LOVE! <3 They're extremely witty, funny, hilarious, insightful, etc. Kind of gives you a chick lit feel, but I'm the type of person who's very opposed to the valley girl voice typical of stereotypical chick lit, so to me they're above that, top tier, accomplished chick lit. I don't see how someone could NOT identify with Jessica on some level - you'd have to be an alien!
