Plus MR itself encourages reading with the lively discussions and irresistible recommendations.
My mother is the same with her ereader.

I used to skip to the back at least 25% of the time with paper books. I have rarely done this with ebooks. It is easy to change books and go back, plus I find it easier to select things I know I want to read. Even browsing the library is easier than pulling books from the shelves.

I have read approximately 500 ebooks since 2010, (I only work 5 months a year) and have at least 50 more that I have read about halfway. Mybe I will finish them and maybe I won't
