I like the feeling of being curious when reading a book, and that is pretty much what keeps me reading it - you can't "wonder" when you know what will happen next and next and next.

What about you?
I find that slightly curious. Do you only listen to a piece of music once for the same reason?

Re-reading good books for me is like visiting old friends. I have certain books that I re-read every few years, and get equal pleasure from every time I do so.
