I think constantly checking if you can recall the last paragraph is a bad habit. It not only requires mental effort, it also breaks your flow.

I have ADHD myself, and I advise you to always keep reading. Don't stop and think about what things meant, don't recall the important events at the end of a paragraph or chapter, none of that. Just keep reading.

If you really feel like you didn't 'get it', go back 3 chapters. But reread it without stopping.
