I'm reading Hellspark again; can't remember how many times I've read it since it was first published, back in the late '80s. It's one of my comfort books, along with Pride and Prejudice, The Witches of Karres, Cotillion, and The War for the Oaks.

So -- what are your comfort books?

Depends on my mood and what book is closest to me at any given time!

List includes:
Early Anne McCaffrey - the first 3 in the Dragon Riders series (Dragonflight, Dragonquest and White Dragon), the Crystal singer trilogy.
Lois McMaster Bujold - a number of the Vorkosigan books, but esp Shards of Honor and Barrayar.
From my childhood, but still a favourite re-read: Madeleine L'Engle's A Wrinkle in Time.

That's all I can think of off the top of my head. Sure there are more.
