This is the topic i like most. Reading books! it takes a person to new world. There are many good sites for books. you can check http://www.gutenberg.org/ its fantastic website for reading and listening.
I always imagine myself sitting in a big window with glass pane. Outside a splendid lush green ground reaching to the horizon covered with not so thick fog.. a small drizzel in between...I am having a plate of hot snack and a mug of coffee... and a really thick book.. a really imaginative book.. may be harry potter .....
what matters are words, sentences, the way in which they are arranged.... and you color it with your emotion... tones...vividness of pictures...you see it on your mind... you project it on your mind...the touch of book... the smell of new pages...that size of book is like a window which takes you to new world.. (then do i need MS window to read books????).
Listening to books could be different.. and that's why book reading is in plain voice... but still reader's personal tone is there... that disturbs your own imagination....
So when i watch Harry Potter after reading it.. i didn't like the movie much... (sitting on soft sofa, lying on bed... the reading of the book revealed new world... that can't be captured by the movie..)
Reading 200 page book... may be 3-4 hours in a single go for me...
Formatted,
