Well, the first time I read LOTR, I read it in a week so I could see the movie. There were some parts in which I was unclear and is was more like a scan through the books. After the Fellowship split up, I was unlcear on where Aragorn, Legolas and Gimli were going and what they were doing. The second time, I payed attention to the details and made sure I knew exactly what was going on.
Now that I understand it, I reread it for sheer enjoyment of the awesome world and people that exist in it. I will always keep rereading it until my last day because it is and will always be my favorite book.
