In middle school (junior high), we read stories like 'The Hobbit', 'Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of Nimh' etc which really opened my eyes to new stories and writing styles.
I agree that reading back to back for young readers probably isn't a good idea, because it tends to feel forced and is more of a turn-off.

It helps them to expand their reading capabilities and try books that they wouldn't normally have chosen for themselves.

If you dislike reading, it can change that and, at the very least, make you try something you'd never have tried anyway.
Win- win!
