That doesn't work for me, maybe if it was English? I tend to read blocks of text, so a longer line means my eyes have to move more, at least in your examples.

If that makes sense  Because the lines are much longer, I can 'read forward' much better: read something, and process it, while you read the next few words already. Thus I can continue on the next line, very often without breaking the flow of my reading. On the Kindle, that is much harder because the lines are short. |
