Yes

I absolutely adore revisiting my cherished favorites. Phillip Pullman's "His Dark Materials" is an example of a book series where a re-read warrants attention. Every time I sweep through the tragedies of Lyra's adventure I discover the depths of some allusions I had no reference for in youth, or some critical expression I somehow missed on the first exhilarating read-through. Aside from such academic joys, the re-telling of tales, I feel, strengthens their value for any reader, and an author's observations and elucidations may resonate more effectively in your heart and memories.
