Books people re-read

August 2, 2020 (4y ago)31,004 views

Last night I asked a question on Twitter: what books have you read more than once?

As it turns out, it turned into a wonderful way of crowdsourcing a compelling reading list from quite a few thoughtful people.

I took the opportunity to dump the data on Notion and write a Next.js page using the new stable Incremental Static Regeneration to produce this list and keep it up to date automatically.

Here are all the books, sorted by how frequently they were suggested.
