Do you lads often read books multiple times?

Really depends on the book

I'll re-read fiction after I've forgotten most of the plot. Books that were interesting enough for me not to forget, I usually don't see a point. Non-fiction is never worth a re-read, if I need a refresher on it I just look up a summary.

yes

most days I'd rather reread a book than read a new one

Yes. I started outlining the argument from books I really like. I have them in a folder on my desktop, and if im thinking about the book I can pull it up and skim

you have to if you really want to understand the book. the first time you read a book it's just a movie, linear and temporal. if you read it enough times it becomes a painting, you can see the whole book at once. someone smarter than me said this, I can't remember who.

It's almost impossible to comprehend an entire book after one reading.

With non-fiction I take notes on the 2nd read.
