Nook's eInk display can display 16 shades of grey. The contrast when reading a book depends widely on the font used in the settings. "Amasis" seems darker than other fonts, but some ebooks won't let you change the font.
The programmers chose a certain font for the menu. If you have a softrooted nook you may have experienced that "My Documents" has a different font with higher contrast.
Reading a website is different: Nook has to transform any colours into the greyscale, this might highly affect the contrast you see. Twitter's mobile site e.g. has small fonts for time and blue for tags and names. On the nook everything is a shade of grey with low contrast. But that's not nook's fault, it's the web design.
