Lord of the Rings. I love them but I first read them such a long time ago, they're so familiar, I can't distance myself from them. I would love to have that sense of discovery again, not knowing what's around the next corner or anything. And then read them for the second and third time again, that'd be almost as good.

Alternate answer, X-Files. But mostly LotR.

I tried reading LOTR in middle school but I think that was the day I realized I do not like fantasy books all that much.


Terrible story but every time I watched LOTR I watched it with captions. I probably watched each movie 4-5 times with captions. One day, I was too lazy to find the remote and did not turn them on. Holy crap I missed a lot of those movies.

Haha, I think it's safe to say my experience was just about exactly the opposite when I read them. But to each their own!

That's another thing that would be nice: to be able to imagine the books without any influence at all from the movies. Not that they're not OK movies but even if you read the books first it affects the way you see things, you know?

Aww, that's admirable. It may actually be the only solid reason I'd want to be "neuralized" - to distance myself from stuff (LotR in particular; I read when I was, like... five; I grew up with it) and see how I perceive it without the nostalgia bias, with my reading experience being untainted by dozens of similar ones.

I imagine that would make for some great impartial literary analysis.
