What's on your top 5 re-read list?

Hi everyone, I'm new to this board. Sorry if this is a repeat post. What are your top 5 (or less) books that are so good you'd give up a new book to re-read them (or you've already read them more than once)? Here are 5 of mine in no particular order:

1. Safe Haven by Nicholas Sparks (read twice, would probably read for a 3rd time in a few years)
2. 19 Minuets by Jodi Picolt
3. Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson
4. The Lincoln Lawyer by Michael Connolley
5. The Help by Kathryn Stockett

Selfishly I want to read other people's answers because I'd like to start reading better books and find more than 5 books worth re-reading. On a side note, a lot of the books on the Kindle lending library aren't that great (probably why you can borrow them for free.) They've been great to help me read more, but I find myself disappointed at the end of the book.
