I tend not to reread. Part of this is the time involved and the volume of stuff to read out there. I could re-read this, but much of the suspense and wonder is gone. I re-listen to music a lot, but it doesn't force me to stop talking to my family or not get the dishes done. There's too much in life to do to spend another ten to twenty hours of my life reading a novel again. Music is easier. In the span of ten hours I can experience fifteen albums and still get things done.
Rereading for me seems a waste of time. Much of my love of reading is experiencing new things. The wonder of not knowing where the story is going is part of that experience.
