Which books have you read multiple times?
I've only read 2 books multiple times. I read Catcher In The Rye twice, and now I'm reading The Giver for the third time. I want to re-read The Sound And The Fury.

Aside from "The Far Side" and "Bloom County" collections, Catcher in the Rye, A Farewell to Arms, Holidays on Ice (David Sedaris), Parliament of Whores (P.J. O'Rourke)
I've listened to a couple of David Sedaris' books on CD multiple times.

Stranger in a Strange Land
Youth in Revolt
Replay
Phantom Tollbooth (once with my boy, so sharing with him is a little different from just rereading it on my own)
D'auliare's Greek Myths
Probably a couple more Heinlein or Asimov books.

Wheel of Time series around 8 or 9 times
Ender's Game roughly 20 times
Belgariad and Mallorean roughly 10 times
Riftwar, Riftwar Legacy, Serpentwar, and the series with Talon in it roughly 4 or 5 times
Whole lot of others once or twice.

Pride and Prejudice is pretty much the only book I can think of having read several times due to my own choice (I'm assuming you mean novels--I've read several poetry books over and over). I've reread some books for classes, and other books aloud to my kids, but I'm not counting those.

I can't think of any book since I was little that I've re-read. Back in the day I read my Judy Blume's over and over, but there are too many new books I want read for me to revisit any now.
