I have re-read QoA many times, but have only read the 1st bit a couple of times. I skip over the hand part and just re-read the rest of the book. Why torture myself by watching Gen get tortured. QoA abstainers should try this. (I can tell where to start, now, because I have re-read it so many times the pages are dirtier on the edges beyond that point.)
The same thing works for Bujold's Memory. I can hardly stand to watch Miles being as incredibly stupid as he is at the beginning, but it is otherwise an excellent book, worthy of re-reading.
