It annoys me greatly, because I've realized that it takes so much more time and concentration to read a mathematically-themed book. Even if it's well-written and in a rather 'easy' style, it still needs so much focusing. ._.
Of course, using a text-marker helps. But still... :/
I can only read a small fraction at a time, I need to take breaks in between parts (whereas I can read fiction for hours and hours without even thinking of putting the book down. Unless it's in Italian, then it can be fairly exhausting as well.)
Then I start wondering whether some people struggle like that with 'normal' fiction, too, and I kind of fear that the answer to this is 'Yes'.
Anyway, the books are helpful, though. ^^
