This is something I have been thinking about for a little while now. I think it depends on why you are reading. If you are reading purely for the story or to gain information, then sure; but as someone who reads largely for the benefits that come with reading, i think it not only takes the fun out of it but you also lose the benefits and the gratification of finishing a book in the traditional sense. I'm interested in what other fellow bookish people think.
