Yes. I believe it is a reflection of our own experiences with THAT book. As far as mental images and ebooks go: I think my mind
tried to form those images at first, but then I realized it just wasn't necessary to do so. I learned to highlight text, or to add bookmarks/annotations as I was reading if I had any inclination that I may want to reference something later. There was no further need for me to maintain a "middle-of-the-book/left-hand page/third of the way down" reference.
