Last Herald Mage thoughts (again)

I was cataloguing books at the weekend in preperation for my move and got to
the Mercedes Lackey shelf. Um, it turns out that I have 40 ML books *is
embrassed*

Anyway, leaving aside my slight obsession, I picked up Magic's
Promise and decided that I was about due for a Vanyel re-read and that
particular one appealed. I'm not sure why - usually I go for the first or
last book in the series because I'm a sucker for the romance. This time,
though, I'm enjoying Promise more than I ever remember enjoying it
before. It seems to be a book that gets better each time I re-read it. The
other two are old familiar friends, but right now I seem to see new things
in Promise far more than I do in the other two.

Does anyone else have books like that? Ones that you were a bit meh-ish
about on the first read, but seem to get better every time you go back to
them?

The only slight problem with the re-read is that I get so absorbed I forget
to do important things, like going to sleep or leaving for work. D'oh!
