Started Man's Search for Meaning expecting to finish it in a weekend.

Instead I've been reading it a few pages at a time.

The writing is pretty straightforward, but What caught my attention was how much of the book is spent observing human behavior, not just describing events.

I wasn't expecting how much of the book would focus on observing people's responses to the same circumstances rather than only describing those circumstances.

That's probably what's slowing me down more than anything else.

I'm interested in how other readers interpreted that aspect of the book.

I'm rereading Think and Grow Rich, and something unexpected happened.

The first time, I was mostly focused on the advice.

This time, I keep catching myself paying attention to different things—why one idea appears before another, why certain stories are repeated, and how later chapters seem to build on earlier ones.

It made me wonder whether a second read is sometimes less about finding new ideas and more about noticing the book's structure.

Has a reread ever changed how you read a book, rather than what you learned from it?
