If its a good book it can be re read again with no loss of enjoyment IMHO. True you may know how its going to end. Stephen King described it perfectly in the epilogue to the Dark Tower before giving an alternate ending. He related it to sex and saying if its all about the squirt at the end you missed the journey. (or something like that).
When my wife was diagnosed with Cancer and then all its subsequent surgeries and treatments. I re-read The Dark tower series Back to back and then listened to the Audio books back to back, followed by the entire Tom Clancy "Ryanverse" in chronological order vs published order as a distraction.
I am looking forward to re reading/listening to Patrick O'Brians Master and Commander again all 20 1/2 as the story is so well done its like visiting old Friends you haven't seen in a while.
