I'm sure that I would continue to have the same feelings towards the specific books and especially feel the same way about specific characters but maybe I will love more or be more compassionate about them knowing what will happen later on. So after reading the whole Trylle Trilogy would I read it again? Definitely!! I especially loved the bonus short stories so I would make sure to read those again.
