I can't remember if this blocks the sleep or not. If it does, that will add time.
I disabled sleep mode entirely and left it plugged in all night. Since I'd seen a message (I think yours) from a couple of years ago saying c. 500 books could take two hours it seemed clear I didn't want sleep mode kicking in and the battery probabaly wouldn't be up to it either. It's now another few hours in and still hasn't finished. The odd thing is all the books I tried to read have always been fine.
