Dracula and 1984 I think I've re-read the most. Apart from my Georgette Heyer collection which are my old faithfuls for reading without thinking. Oh, and my yoga book which I have out every evening.
Have you ever read The Historian? A Great Dracula Story.

The Earth Children series by Jane Auel (The Clan of the Cave Bear, The Valley of the Horses, The Mammoth Hunters, The Plains of Passage, The Shelters of Stone). I read the first 4 books at 12, 18, and 24, and just read the last one for the first time a month or so ago. It's a great series, entertaining (the plot), educational (Auel spends on average 5 years researching before writing each book), and thought provoking (there's a heavy emphasis on what the world was like before modern man came and mucked it up).
I love those books, perhaps one of the very first series that got me interested in books. I found Valley of the Horses among my mother's books, read it, loved it, and had to read the rest.
The series that I could read over and over again(and have), are the Deverry novels by Katherine Kerr. The first book in the series is the very first book that I bought with my own money.
