I don't tire of them.

I reread Lord of the rings every year too. And Mansfield park by Elisabeth Gaskell.

I would recommend Louis De Bernieres Bird without wings to anyone. Truly amazing story. He is the author of captain corellis mandolin but his other works are just as good if not better.

Louis De Bernieres is a great shout - his books set in South America are sometimes hilarious and sometimes so insightful and touching.... I am going to have to dig them out again now (I think one is The War of Don Emmanuels Nether Parts? )

A Man Called Ove by Fredrik Backman.

A Swedish book about a cranky old man. The tale is split between the current day and his formative years. It's really, really moving. I recommend as long as you don't mind a bit of a cry.
