Recently, I was perusing a Kindle help forum and saw a thread there from someone who had noticed that they read much faster on their Kindle than not. Almost all of the many replies to the thread noted a similar experience.

It's been something I've found myself since I got my Kindle in February - I read a book waaaay faster on the Kindle than I ever did as a paperback or hardback. I've no clue why that would be, but it is.

I know that many here have a Kindle or other e-reader. So I'm curious as to what the general experience here has been. Do you find you read faster on your e-reader?


Athos: If you'd told us what you were doing, we might have been able to plan this properly.
Aramis: Yes, sorry.
Athos: No, no, by all means, let's keep things suicidal.
