He's probablty been reading the same 12 pages for the last 5 years age its a wonderful thing apparently the consequences of aging aren't so wonderful though :(
I have a system of shelves - one for the books I've bought but not yet read (the input buffer), the rest for the books I've read (categorised by author and in the date of publishing) .... trouble is, although I can keep pace with the input buffer shelf, I keep having to add more and more shelves for those I've read
Nevertheless the system does help me to remember which I have read - oh, that along with the spreadsheet I keep

Lend them to family & friends. You'll never see your books again.

Which is why I keep them on the shelves ..... ready to read again when my memory has failed and they will all seem like fresh reads .... planning well ahead for retirement

Not really as if you get that bad you'll forget why you had them or think that they are for insulation
For the avoidance of doubt and for the benefit of my wife, not everything I may say here will be absolutely true I may on ocassion embellish a little for effect.
That said when it comes to motorbikes, I like to ride side saddle with a nice frock
