I, and perhaps many others here, gain enjoyment from rereading any book that I enjoyed reading the first time.
If I don't have any interest in rereading a book, it is probably because I felt, after reading it, that it was kind of meh, and I shouldn't have bothered in the first place.
You win some, you lose some.
