I have two reading speeds.
The first is for basic comprehension of text as for manuals, news and blogging.
For a good story, I slow it down to voice speed as I take time to imagine the characters and their surroundings. In this one I've had the limitation provided by the previous movie visuals. When Harry was in Dumbledore's office, I could see it as it was in the movies, so were all other known places. With well written works, I also go back to phrasing, analytical grammar and word lookup. Time very well spent.
If this book had been news, it would have taken me about the same time as neko.
