We have more spare time after the "double reduction" policy (双减政策). My children and I enjoy the reading time, it's amazing to read the books which I have read before. Rereading is like staying with an old friend. Sometimes, you two are so similar.
The beauty of rereading depends on the idea that our connection with the book is based on our own experience. It's true, the older I get, the more I feel time has wings. But with reading, it's all about the present time. Because reading is a kind of communication between author and reader. Each has to try the best.
There are two books I reread during my spare time. The first, which I read these days, is Ernest Hemingway's A Moveable Feast. Published in 1964, it's about his memory of 1920s Paris. The words are rousing. I can get energy when I am down. The other is The Unwinding which was on the list of 10 best books of the 22nd Shenzhen Reading Month. The reason why I like it is that its changeable plot helps me think deeply.
As for my children, they have more time to read. They often give an unexpected ending for a story. This makes us laugh or feel sorry for the characters. After a book, there must be a drama in my home. It's the sweet family time.
Thanks to the valuable rercading time, it helps us grow and better understand what company(陪伴) is. I believe that the more we read, the better we will be.
