It's just much easier to go to the next ebook than it is to pick up a languishing Ent corpse. In fact, thanks to Kobo's "display cover while off" feature, I feel compelled to start a new ebook as soon as I finish another - which, in turn, leads to reading that ebook instead of something from the physical stacks.

Incidentally, the physical stacks are still growing, but very slowly. I now tend to limit those to graphic novels and other cases where format has more of an impact, though - such as House of Leaves.
