When you have to do something every day, you will do it. For example brush your teeth, hookup the phone to the charger go to bed. When you have to that once a week you will forget.
Probably it is a personal issue then

When I bought my mobile, I also bought one with a long battery life. So, sometimes the same thing happens to me too

However, it never ever happened with the reader. Don't know why. Maybe because you(me, or anyone else) use the reader in a different way. I mean when you talk on the phone you have only short periods of time when you actually look at the screen and see battery indicator (and mostly it happens when you are away from home!), while when you use the reader the indicator is in fron of your eyes for prolonged periods of time. Lets say 20 minutes and more. When I come home, I forget about mobile altogether until next morning. Next time I noticed the indicator when I am at work and there is no charger around. It is very different with the reader. There is a significant life time between every bar of the indicator, so when I finish my reading session before I go to sleep I can always determine whether I need to recharge the reader over the night or not.
