As much as we love a new read, sometimes the best thing for both the heart and the mind is a date with a well-trodden favorite; the one with the spine so worn it's practically falling off (or maybe it's already long gone.)
Last week, in an effort to uncover the most re-read sci-fi books of all time, we asked you to nominate and vote for your most re-read books. Last week you were able to nominate and vote for as many titles as you wanted, but now...
Now, it's time to decide.
We narrowed down the list of your nominations to the ten most voted for, and now it's time to figure out what the best ones are out of this group!
*As alway this list is made up by combining votes from this blog and our Facebook group.

Have you done a “most re-listened to book?” There are some books that are a much better experience because of great narration. I’ve listened to R.C. Bray narrate “The Martian” about twelve times.
I’ve read and reread Dune many times. It was in fact, the first book I ever intentionally reread, and have been pleased with each read through. Wonderful book, masterfully written.

While Weber and Flint from Baen Books helped me start reading again, I would have to say that I, Robot is THE most influential.
Foundation would have been my 2nd pick…

When the later wheel of time books came out I re-read the previous books in the series from the start.
