For both my theses I haven't read a single paper back to back because most of the volume is a waste of space. Methodology, graphs, data, opinions, how can we improve further - sure. But a page of introduction to the background context? Why write it if myself I'm skipping it when reading papers of others? Summary of previous papers on the topic? Give me a list of what works the author is aware of and let's get moving. Either I'm searching for something and I will go ahead and skim them, or I don't care about author's summary of other works. If there is some relevant data in other works, it will be cited when referenced
