Christopher,
Thanks for reminding us of the speak screen feature. I have that enabled on my iPhone but didn't mention it because I'm not really a fan of using that for any lengthy book reading. I get different volume levels with it and prefer to read with an app that doesn't feel like a workaround. It does provide another option which I'm happy to have but I don't seen to use it very often.
