Depends what you are looking for. I can think of a few cases where percentages are pretty much useless.
1. What if I want to get a sense for how 'big' a book is compared to the last one(s) I read.
2. What if I want to know about how much longer the book is?
Knowing that I am 17% into a book does not give me a great sense of how long the book is or how much more time it will take to read the remaining 83%. Unless, of course, I have been keeping accurate time of how long it took to read the first 17% and then break out my calculator.
