I agree that he used the wrong terminology, "forgetting" to read doesn't apply here, it's not being able to focus as already said.

Fortunately I don't have that problem, even as computer-dependent I am about most things. But when I get in a cozy chair, or in the nicer weather in a nice recliner outdoors, I can sit for hours and read. I usually have my cell phone with me just in case of an important call (more so I don't have to get up if anyone dares to interrupt me), but I'm never tempted to put the book down and pick up the phone.

Maybe the author just needs to find a more interesting book to read to be able to focus. And read someplace where he can get away from the other distractions that might be tempting him.
