I understand perfectly. I occasionally find it incredibly hard to start reading the next book or watching the next series of media that I love.
Pixel eye friction.... Maybe that's why my eyes get so dry sometimes lol ^^
Of course I can reread, and I will. Cordelia's Honor literally fell apart because I had read it so many times. That's why I have everything on Kindle, too. But an unread story is different. The first time is different. I want to savor the newness, and once it's gone, it's gone.
I agree with Lois, there are a number of books I finish then turn back to page 1. Some of them are Lois' books ;-)
I did that with Flowers of Vashnoi. Got it on my Nook, read it immediately, and then went back and read it again - immediately. So good to have a new one!
How did I miss that this was published? Huzzah, a new novella for the weekend.
I know a few people who did that for a while with Terry Pratchett's last Discworld book. They wanted to know there was still one out there not read.
