I don't recall which book it was but I have a slight guess, so this might happen again sometime in the future.

I've suspected it's something Isaac Asimov or Phillip K Dick. I keep thinking I've never read anything Asimov or PKD before, but I had suspicions this isn't completely true as well (may have randomly read a ton of their work in my low memory distracted youth without knowing who they were).
Both Asimov and PKD dabbled in time travel so that may be affecting you. Some books are well worth reading more than once. A one or two year hiatus can give you a different perspective on the story.
