For what it's worth, my iPhone 6 has become my primary reading device out of sheer convenience. It's not ideal in full sunlight but then again I'd choose something else if I planned prolonged reading in the sun.
The bigger concern is battery life. If you all you do on the phone is read, you should be fine. If you take a lot of pictures, that really eats up the battery.
I'm quite tolerant of backlit screens, and I used to read on smaller screens, so my experience may not reflect yours.
