That is me, except I tend t re-read a book that I know how it ends but is just interesting enough to keep my mind from wandering. In my case it is Terry Pratchett's Discworld series. Of course, I also have them in audio on a cheap mp3 player that I pop in my ear at a very low volume to help lull me to sleep. I have definitely gotten my money's worth out of that series! I've got them in paper back (2 copes of some of them) ebook and many in audio.
