This is particularly true with pbooks, in my experience. I've frequently been able to remember not only what I've read but where on the pages the passage is located.
That's obviously not there with ebooks, but with Amazon's MyClippings file all I need do is highlight the passage. I can keep up with many more passages this way than with pbooks especially with an aging brain.
