I have generally found that once I have reached a certain momentum, the medium(phone or physical) doesn't matter. Though it is easier to do this for easily digestible books.I used to read a lot since I was a kid, right upto my second year in college. And then I got a PC and started watching instead of reading. I had finished the whole library that was in my vicinity in Chandigarh and during summer holidays, used to read 3-4 books a day. Also used to read Harry Potter books in one go on the day of the launch itself.
I have tried getting back to reading, but find it harder to do with digital format and I have no access to a local library anymore and can't buy so many books either. Trouble with reading on phone is that there are other distractions as well. Reading speed has always been very good and I don't think it has deteriorated despite no practice in the last decade and a half. I have picked up Dune because of the movie and it's a famous novel series as well. Have always felt that books are better than movies. Only 'Harry Potter' movies were ok because they copied the books verbatim. Let's see how it goes. It's much easier to leave the book mid-way when reading on a phone than, when reading a hardcover.
