Interesting, yvan. I find that when I'm really in the flow of the story, I speed up my reading considerably. But then, I'm not a visual reader. (When I saw stills from the first movie, it felt strange, not so much because the appearances of the characters were different from my imagined version, but because they had appearances at all.)
I think timing how quickly I read one page would lead to a very inaccurate estimate, because of this "flow" factor. I'd need to time at least a chapter. I also find I speed up toward the end of the book, though I may miss some details or depth as a result. But then, I generally re-read anything I like, and I enjoy it even more the second time, picking up things I didn't really catch on the first read.
