If you have any issues or want to make any suggestion, please let me know.
Remember that most convenient options may differ for different users, so make sure to set your own values in "Convenient Reading.ini" file if the text is too small or the book is too far away / too close when reading.
Edit 24.05.2021: I've added optional instant page turn animations. It works just like in the old TES games (Morrowind, Oblivion). To have the book position exactly like in those games, add these lines under the [Interface] section of «Convenient Reading.ini»: fBookXRotation=0 fBookPosHeightPercentage=0.47
Edit 26.05.2021: Uploaded new version. You can now set the book and note font sizes separately*, and I fixed an issue when book text became bold with some font overhauls. * Note that in some cases the note text in ESP record may be in HTML form with font size included in it. In those cases setting from INI will be overwritten.
It works. Fairly well. But there's an issue with notes; the text is very small and a smudged sepiatone that consipre to make them rather difficult to read. Tweaking the .ini has no effect upon notes, it seems.
Some notes have the font size included in their text (the text in HTML form with font size), in such case font size setting from INI will be overwritten, and there's nothing I can do about it, unfortunately. Furthermore, the text size may vary depending on font you are using for notes. In the next update I'll try to make book and note font size settings separate.
You can try to use optional darker text file, maybe it will help with smudged sepiatone text.
@MadMansGun Yes, saw your mod, it's great! I must say I didn't copy your files, rather I converted the vanilla animations to XML and then changed timings there (and changed sound descriptors), after that back-converted to HKX. I notice that you removed page turn sounds, I decided to leave them, just cut a bit to match the increased speed.
i never said that you did (and there's only so many ways one can open a book anyways)
i scratch made my animations, so mine never actually had the sound descriptors in the first place......also i don't even know how to add sound descriptors, i assume it's something note track related (there is a serious lack of documentation for that stupid thing)

Is it safe to install mid game ? (as well as your other mod Favorite Things)
And thanks for sharing :)

Love you!
At this point, I assume you are going to tweak every UI elements there are in Skyrim?
Well, I guess only those still need some tweaking :)
