Are e-books read on ebook readers more difficult to read than a normal paper book?

Published in July 14th, 2009

Hey, so I read really slow, and I know that reading text on a computer is slower than reading text on paper. But how about on ebook readers? I have a lot of reading to do over the summer, and I was wondering if reading books on my ebook reader would be slower than reading paper books?
Thanks!

Do your ebook reader use e-ink? If so, I think it will not differ much compared to reading on paper. I owned the Kindle 2, which uses the e-ink technology. I like it very much as it is really like reading books, and some time I feel that reading on my Kindle is even faster than reading on books. You can read this from an actual owner too, it tells the feeling on reading books:

BTW, I’m a student too so I need to do lots of reading. I’ve found some way to improve my reading speed. I’ve mentioned that in another answer previously, just see if it helps:
