Reading Your Own Books

I re-read two of my own poetry books, on the prompting of a friend. Heterosexual: A Love Story came out in 2004 and Li Po Laughing at the Lonely Moon came out in 2008. This may sound egotistical, but I found I'd gained some critical distance. I was no longer insecure and liked the books. I generally hate a book after it comes out, and it is hard to do publicity then. How about any other writers out there?
