Apparently not.
Listening to Candy Palmater's interview with "Paramedic Andrea Webb [who] talks about why she loves to read, and what her colleagues did to make it easier to exchange books".
Andrea talks about her fondness for Jane Eyre and how, since picking it back up in her twenties "literally hasn't put it down".
I certainly hope she's only misspoken, and puts it down when attending to someone who's in real trouble.
