I do that also.

I also read that you always have a voice in your head but sometimes you do not notice it.

Even if you read so slow as 5 minutes per page a 400 page book is then 2000 minutes which is around 35 hours. If you want to read you should be able to read 2-4 books per month even at that speed.
