I've found that I remember authors and titles of books far less well when reading ebooks. My guess is it's because I don't see the book's cover lying around the house even when I'm not actively reading it as I do with a real book, and because it always starts right where I left off, so I don't see the cover when I pick it up to start reading. Plus no author/title page headers.


I have the same problem. It's really annoying when I'm trying to tell someone about this great book, but I don't know who wrote it or what its called.
