myanswer would be "maybe normal."
there are a lot of things that affect battery life. turning it on requires a fair bit of battery charge. so if you power it on from powered off to reading even once a day, you'll notice a battery drain.
the size of the books you read also affects battery performance. so, a smallish 200kb epub isn't a big drain, but at least one book in my libraryis 25MB -- that drains it fast (lots of photos). a lot of magazines seem to also be huge files for the same reason.
also, if it's in sleep mode, not powered off, there will be a drain.
when you say you get 15 hours, i take it that means 15 hours of reading, plus occasionally powering on/off?
that's probably on the shorter side of what's to be expected, so maybe check the size of files you're reading first.
