Hey, everyone! Late last summer I just started the tradition of reading all the animorph books again and its becoming a tradition that I'm very fond of. Does anybody else have a similar tradition?
-
I haven't read through them since maybe 2005/2006 when Project AM was still a potential thing, around that time I re-bought a few of them on eBay to complete the collection, some of my originals were in really cruddy attic-stored condition so it was cool to get better versions.
Don't know that I'd ever read through them all again, great and nostalgic as they are. It'd be fun though.
-
Yeah since I started off with less than 10 books, every Christmas I would get a few more to add to the series as my present, so I had an annual summer reread, and since I completed the collection a a couple of years ago, I do a week long animarathon reading all 64 (yes including alternamorphs) in the summer hols. So last time I read them all was in January. It's a good tradition :)

I've done a couple re-reads but I don't know if I'll ever read them all again. I don't need to relive Cassie's adventures in Australia any more than the 2-3 times I already have.
I did just finish the reading the final 6 books which I've done a few times. Just an amazing arc and conclusion that I'll probably get the urge to read every few years. I also love re-reading the David trilogy. Other than those two storylines I wouldn't mind giving some of the Chronicles another read.
Maybe the next time I read some of the other books will be to my kids someday, until then they're tucked safely away in the attic.

The only books that I've re-read in recent memory were the The Andalite Chronicles and Visser, and that was probably a couple years ago. I really, really need to get around to re-reading the whole series again sometime
-
Yes, I have a similar tradition, i re-read all the Animorphs books but in a totally casual period.
The last reading lasted from february 2015 to august 2016, because of the many commitments, the previous ones lasted less time.

I did for a while, then dialed it back. I truly love these books, but last time I went through there were no surprises anymore. I laughed and cried in all the right places, but knowing it was coming takes something out of it.
So I'll take a long brake before i do the whole thing again. I won't forget everything, but it'll still be good I trust

I'm at The Solution, one of my favorites!
